Fairly well |
Very well |

Antarctica experiences three to six months of complete darkness in winter. Would the lack of sunlight affect you? | I'd go a little crazy |
Maybe I'll use a natural light lamp |
I think it'd be interesting |

Winds of up to 300 kilometers per hour (185 mph) have been recorded in Antarctica, and the sound is intense. Would this bother you? | I'd find it annoying |
I can tune it out |
That doesn't bother me |

Rooms are comfortable but space is tight. Could you live-and work-with just a few people for months at a time? | I need my privacy |
I hope I'll find some alone time |
I can get along with anybody |

Crews working outside have to wear up to seven layers of clothing. Do you have the patience for all those zippers? | I have little patience |
I am fairly patient |
I'm very patient |

Research stations have energy and water conservation programs. Could you get by with only two, two-minute showers a week? | I couldn't wait that long |
Maybe I'd get used to it |
I like roughing it |
