Welcome to the new Antarctica Journal, resurrected as a news, arts, and commentary online publication. We will give prominence to news generated in and affecting Antarctica, as well as significant news stories not covered sufficiently in mainstream media. Our passion is for news events and facts that indicate larger trends. Perhaps most importantly, in this era of corporate control of news media,
we are free of corporate ownership or sponsorship, and always will be. With the modern proliferation of censored news and infotainment, we remain on the outside, and freed of advertizing. The new Antarctica Journal “Soul Fountain” section is an outlet for creative expression. We welcome your poems, artwork, humor, and commentary. Whether you live in Antarctica or not, we hope to become your home for exciting, important, and unique news and information for your mind, as well as artistic nourishment and expression for your heart and soul. Dialogue with our readers is important to us. We value your feedback and your contributions of all kinds to this enterprise. We are especially grateful to Jim Mauro, managing editor, for his work in establishing and developing Antarctica Journal. Tone Bellizzi
Editor in Chief
