  1. Hi, I'm in Cincinnati Ohio, nowhere near the arctic circle. I am an RN and CRT working in the ER. I've thought about visiting Barrow as a travel RN to see how I liked it. I've lived a few years at a remote interior military post but there are trees and stuff there so not the same (except for the wind and cold). Can you spare a little time to correspond with me to answer some of my questions about the place? I've got a bunch of questions: How long does it take to get a birthday card from the lower 48, is there cell phone service (I'm on AT&T), does the hospital there still provide its RN's with apartments on-site and if so, is there wi-fi or does one need a separate ISP subscription, is my cat welcome, does the hospital have a service vehicle used by staff for things like grocery runs, where does a person catch a movie (I've heard the school is used to show evening movies), do you receive mail only at a PO Box or can it be sent to the hospital quarters? Believe it or not, that's "the tip of the ice-berg as far as my questions go. I have thought of a bunch of others but those are my most pressing. I've researched various Google entries on both Barrow in general and the hospital specifically and to be honest, I'm intrigued and a little disappointed by how sporifice the info/images are. Can you help?
