Steve Wozniak to drive to South Pole
Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak is planning to drive a Hummer H1 powered by hydrogen fuel cells from the McMurdo Station in Ross Island, Antarctica, to the South Pole. 'Woz' made the announcement at Stanford's AlwaysOn Conference in late July, according to leftlanenews. Wozniak's vehicle will be co-piloted by Buzz Aldrin, the former astronaut who walked on the moon in 1969, and the trip will be part of a research expedition slated for December of 2007. The expedition is to be filmed in 3D for the director James Cameorn.

Classic American thinking - if there's a problem, the only solution is to drive a big-ass vehicle over it.
Of course, I would think it would be really hard to drive over that land, with ice crevices, cold, wind, etc, around every hill. But, then, maybe he just wants to be able to do it before it all melts and any idiot can drive over the land.
