I don't own this space under my name. I should have leased it while I still could

keesje, it probably does.

In your previous post you were almost realistic:

I think is a good thing to balance the expectations a bit by painting not so unlikely, far less glorious, even embarrasing scenarios.
Your scenarios would certainly be embarrassing but your suggestion that they would be not so unlikely is where your suggestions fail.
An invasion of hundreds of Argentine civilians, old, young, men, women, setting op dozens of camps, looking happy, making music and singing around camp fires.
Any idea what even 1,000 people involve?

Little problems like a sewage, food, heating fuel, dry ground, shelter. I love the idea of camp fires. What do you suggest they use for fuel? the old need medical care and medicines, civilians are largely untrained in adventurous activities at any time let alone sub-arctic survival.

Try and think inside the box first before you try and open it.
