Diary entry of a crew member of the 1915 Shackleton south polar expedition:

Ironically, Orde-Lees, who was both the most eccentric and most
modern-minded of Shackleton's men, had foreseen this day of inescapable
connectedness.

"No doubt the explorers of 2015, if there is anything left to explore, will. . .
carry their pocket wireless telephones. . . of course, there will be an aerial
daily excursion to both poles then,"
he had mused on the same January day
he prepared the letters home that would never be sent. The possibility of
air rescue from the South Pole, would not, one imagines, surprise him. On
the other hand, he might have been taken aback -- or perhaps reassured --
to learn that certain fundamentals of polar travel remain unchanged.
