OpEdNews - Diary: Occupy Antarctica Protester Carries On Despite -50 Degree Temperatures

AMUNDSEN-SCOTT, ANTARCTICA -- In the tradition of some of the most ardent revolutionaries throughout history, 32 year-old Steinar Skramstad isn't allowing inconvenient circumstances to hinder his steadfast determination to lead the charge for change in Antarctica. Protesting by himself in mind numbing -50 degree temperatures outside his parents' home, Steinar Skramstad's lonely revolt against corporate predators is a stoic demonstration of a modern day David standing tall and defiant in the face of a Goliath called Wall Street. A lionhearted rebel's valiant crusade to make his world a better and brighter place. With wind gusts up to seventy miles per hour, Steinar is routinely knocked off his feet and sent sliding across the icy tundra until he is able to stand again. Forced to venture indoors every three to four minutes to avoid hypothermia, Mr. Skramstad returns to the brutal and merciless outdoors after his hallucinations dissipate to resume his demonstration against greed.
