[edit] First publication of New Zealand Antarctic Society quarterly journal, Antarctic
The website of the given organization says the first issue is from 1956 ? Maybe there is an error? Or is it another issue unmentionned on their website?

- hmm - odd. The New Zealand book of events gives 1949 as first publication date, and it's usually pretty accurate on dates. The NZAS would, of course, be the more authoritative source, but it may be worth double-checking with the online catalogue of one of NZ's research libraries like the Turnbull or the Hocken. Grutness...wha? 23:35, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] First person to winter over on the continent
It may seem silly, but ain't it Carstens Borchgrevink in 1899 and not Byrd in 1934?
