sanandak New Poster Registered: 01/19/06 Posts: 1	First man to the South Pole: Roald Amundsen's 1911-1912 expedition. I may say that this is the greatest factor -- the way in which the expedition is equipped -- the way in which every difficulty is foreseen, and precautions taken for meeting or avoiding it. Victory awaits him who has everything in order -- luck, people call it. Defeat is certain for him who has neglected to take the necessary precautions in time; this is called bad luck. ---Roald Amundsen. ------------------------------------ My first post, so please comment and let me know how it can be improved.
