Hawaii and East Congo—Esri T-shirts Are Blazing!
Jeff Kinney, database administrator, City of Phoenix, Arizona, was on the Big Island of Hawaii and decided to visit the world's most active volcano. He says, "Although this is my first submission, I have been wearing my collection of Esri T-shirts in interesting places for almost 18 years." Great idea!
Christoph Zonsius, project manager for GIS in telecommunications at con terra in Germany, likewise paid a visit to Nyiragongo Volcano in East Congo. He says, "This volcano has one of the largest active lava lakes in the world, which is 200 meters in diameter." Lucky he didn't go for a swim!

While on board the
National Geographic Explorer and participating in Project Confluence (
www.confluence.org),
Margaret Shaw Chernosky, a geography teacher at Bangor High School in Bangor, Maine, lost her Esri T-shirt, so she read
ArcNews instead and wore a GIS hat near the Svalbard Islands (80°N 12°E), which are 600 nautical miles from the North Pole. (Read details at
