How do they deal with law enforcement down there?

Are there jails / police of any sort? Thanks for the AMA :)

[edit: Are there ANY laws in Antarctica? I know there are territories]

Yes. Chronic sleep apnoea here, or rather I used to have it. I once had a dream that I was swimming through my house, the air felt thick like water, and my chest was getting heavier and heavier. I started swimming up, to try and get air, but my arms and legs wouldn't move very much so I started thrashing them, and it worked, sort of. Then I decided breathing was too hard, and I didn't need to do it anymore, so I stopped and just kinda floated. I felt really good and relaxed, but I had this nagging anxious feeling in the back of my head, and my jaw was starting to hurt.

I remember the shimmering surface getting closer and closer and suddenly there was this huge rush, and a crazy blinding light, and I woke up to my flatmate pounding on my chest and screaming at me, and his gf dialling 111. Apparently I had been snoring on the couch and just flat out stopped, started going blue/grey etc. Woke up in massive cold sweats. Fuckin freaky

Can you taste things? What does it taste like! Do you blend normal food, or do you eat powdered stuff? Thanks for the AMA!
