Hey now!  Lighten up a little.  There's already at least three of us
Pythongeeks
up here: one in Sitka, me in Wasilla, and a professor at the University of
Alaska in Fairbanks, from which city you can catch a scheduled flight to
Deadhorse, Old Woman, Barrow, Nome, the caribou calving grounds, and other
points of interest to the North.

I don't know if an Alaska Inside Passage cruise will prove to be a magnet
for geeks.  Alaskans call them "menopause cruises," on account of the
advanced age and predominantly female gender of the passenger
contingent.
