Why SI ? or Let's ask the History Department. I have a theory and I think you may be well qualified to offer an opinion. My theory explains why people become SI members. I have had my theory plagiarized by an old manuscript written in 1243AD. The unknown author twists my words on slightly but cleverly disguises his handiwork, here he says are the reasons for going to Greenland, I am sure it should read SI. Excerpt from Konungs Skuggsja, Anon. 1243 approx. ...what people go to seek in that country and why they fare thither through such great perils is to be sought in man's threefold nature. One motive is fame and rivalry, for it is in the nature of man to seek places where great dangers may be met, and thus to win fame. A second motive is curiosity, for it is also in man's nature to wish to see and experience the things he has heard about , and thus to learn whether the facts are as told or not. The third desire is for gain; for men seek wealth wherever they have heard that gain is to be gotten, though on the other hand there may be great dangers too.
