    ORDA's Biggest Mistakes

    Just unbelievable. Transue should have been fired for cause. I wounder if we will ever find out if he was fired for cause or was he just allowed to 'retire'. The other people involved - Lisa Morgan and Darrin Morgan (related?) should also be fired as should the so called, (unnamed) human...

    Sweet Cars and Trucks

    It looks like that 1974 Cutlass is a real W30/Hurst. It has the Hurst shifter and the swivel bucket seats and I see the hurst logo on the b pillar. What a fun car.

    The Definitive Solution to the Upstate NY Question

    Cool stuff, but you are rooting for laundry. A quick look at the randomly chosen Colgate roster finds 1 member of the team from upstate NY. Maybe the upstate teams are the best at recruiting talent to upstate teams.;) https://colgateathletics.com/sports/mens-lacrosse/roster...

    ICE v Electric: Cost and Emissions

    So you are going to show a 40k service bill with zero context and use that as your example? Do you drive 40k miles per year? In the US the yearly mileage average is around 14k miles- meaning the average alltrack driver might need this service every 3 years. The engine in your alltrack has a 10k...

    ICE v Electric: Cost and Emissions

    You are being a little hyperbolic discussing routine service. Bigger cost items like timing belts are replaced generally around 80k miles, time chains should last the life of your car, and the belts that run the accessories seem to last as long as the timing belt and are cheap to replace. Tranny...

    Black Mountain - 90th birthday party this Saturday

    This is amazing especially in light of the recent history at Black and the huge decline just up the road at Wildcat.

    ICE v Electric: Cost and Emissions

    (y) Tacoma is also a great choice. It is a bummer you are already somewhat disappointed in the Maverick.

    Did you consider the Honda Ridgeline? You seem to have been very happy with the Hondas you have driven.

    Belleayre Conditions

    I would love to see that survey's data. I wonder if it was attached to the employees' names. "Many like the job she’s doing—37% strongly approve and 35% strongly disapprove and 28% were “passive” to the question—but a majority do not know or understand the direction of the authority. Most feel...

    ORDA Funding

    It is always amusing when somebody notices the potential of Gore and the crazy situation that exists at Gore where there are approvals for slope side beds and, for some reason, they do not get built, despite a lack of lodging surrounding Gore. Front Street's development next to the Ski Bowl was...
