@SouthwestAir just lost a loyal customer. Disappointing to see them follow the pack and nickel-and-dime their passengers. Free bags and open seating were the last things that made them unique—and now that’s going away. Bad move.

@Matt_Pinner The answer is either 6, 4 or 0

Today's story - one that's been in the works for months now. Scientists raise the alarm about NSF's physical qualification process, an exhaustive medical screening required for polar field work - a process many say is fraught with unfair disqualifications. https://t.co/tolg85IR23

Thank you @IceSheetMike for being so candid and open in sharing your story about the polar PQ (physical qualification) process with all of us here on twitter and at AGU.

And thank you to all the senior scientists that signed onto this open letter to NSF

Researchers have expressed concern that some seeking medical clearance—many of them early-career scientists and individuals from underrepresented groups—are failing the U.S. polar research program’s screenings for reasons that aren’t medically sound. https://t.co/CjCLP71HDb

“Really frustrating.”

My latest story for @ScienceMagazine—about complaints by polar scientists that pre-deployment medical screenings are rife with problems.

This morning I, along with ~30 fellow senior polar scientists, sent an open letter to @NSF advocating for reform to our Antarctic physical qualifying (PQ) process. At best, it is inefficient and frustrating. At worst, it is discriminatory. 1/4

@500px - They can make a profit every year in business. - Other photographers want to learn from them.
