Is it too late to cancel the whole season? mm

Why do I feel like this is gonna be a good day for Giants fans? mm

I saw somewhere that Belle was overrun with bus holes Saturday to the point where people gave up before even getting on the lift. It sounded like a sketchy AI story. Was it true? mm

I can’t say anything about Saturday but Friday was sketchy. mm

No. mm

Typical November 25 is closed, today was really special. I saw people playing Cronins on the way home too. mm

Does anyone know what shape Killington and Superstar are in now? Snow control for the FIS races is next Thursday, November 21. After tonight, there isn't any snowmaking weather in the 10 day forecast. FIS can approve a course base on expected weather conditions, but it doesn't look good so far. mm

I don't know what to think about Ski Bowl. Maybe it will spread out crowds and make the whole Gore experience better. OTOH snowmaking has been much better the last few years but they don't seem to be able to cover a very large area at any one time. It seems like the skier cross course requires...

QFT I've been involved in a few of those kinds of meetings from the government side. The point is to appear to listen to the public's concerns and to allow people to vent about decisions that they will have no real impact on. You need to be involved from the beginning of the process with a group...

Lift 10 is the Topridge triple. It makes sense to replace it because it's the oldest lift at Gore (it was originally installed at Whiteface) and breakdowns there are among the most disruptive ones. OTOH last winter Howie told me that the Straightbrook chair was gonna be the next one replaced...

I try to avoid polluted water as much as possible, but for a single one time event I think I'd risk industrial pollution before I'd swim in E.Coli. YMMV When I was in school there was a town beach next to Jacobsons shipyard, which was a Superfund site that wasn't remediated until years later...

If you're draining more water in dehumidify mode you can be sure you are using more energy. Maybe a lot more if it brings the temperature back up to ambient. mm

What does the dehumidifier cycle actually do? Typically you chill the air to a low temperature then reheat to the right temp. If that's what it's doing you don't want to waste the money on it. In hot weather AC should dehumidify well enough. Maybe in hot weather there's no difference between AC...

They probably figured they had to ditch Nordic combined to make more TV time for all the figure skating that happens after the medals ceremony. That makes perfect sense. mm

How does giving up Vail’s dominant market position increase the value of the individual parts? mm

FIFY mm

I can’t drive a real Cobra because I don’t have the skills. I’d way rather drive a slow car fast than a fast car slow. mm

I'm not much interested in track cars that aren't built to an actual competition rule, which is what that Cobra looks like to me. In other news, I was in a Corvette shop in Florida a few weeks ago and the owner showed me a split window Corvette with an entire new chassis and modern motor. The...

Is that some trailer queen replica of something that never existed with a bunch of mods that were never seen back in the day? I don't get the attraction. I'd rather have a real Austin Healey or even a Miata track car. mm

The chrome trim on the side makes it a 61. That was the last of the 283s. My cousin had a 62 with a 327. I was happy to survive a ride in that thing. mm
