Hey, your pm box is full.

great videos! I'm excited to explore around!

oh boy, gonna need a spreadsheet to track all this. I'm out of town on business until this saturday so my replies will be sporadic, but I'll definitely get a response to everyone who's expressed...

Getting rid of a ton of unneeded stuff for reasons (see Skiing in Athens thread). Make any offer on anything that piques your interest ($0 is an acceptable offer for a lot of this stuff). Would very...

Anyone here spent time living in Athens? Any good info on ski areas in driving distance? Looks like the two popular ski areas are Parnassos and Kalavrita, any opinions on these? Or others in the...

Figured I could put this here. Ticked Sprague glacier in RMNP off my list last month. Trying to ski all listed glaciers in CO.

Went skiing last weekend on Rollins Pass. Although there isn't a lot of it, the snow that's left is actually holding up fairly well. The runnels aren't big and nasty yet. Decided to try the middle...

Nice, it looks like it's held on pretty well this summer. I was able to ski it about a month ago and it had really good snow conditions.

Turns out RMNP is pretty popular in the summer. Anyway, hiked up to Tyndall Glacier for a run down the far skiers right side a couple weekends ago. Snow was decent, weather was good, had a fun day on...

First time ever using a Go Pro and video editing. On June 15, I hiked Argentine peak and skied the east face. There were a lot of people camping along the Naylor lake...

Found Wednesday at bottom of slide debris on the west side about half way down the gulch. possibly same area as Kyle's accident. 192 length, really nice ski, left with Loveland Ski Patrol.

So I was really hungry tonight and wanted to up my calorie/fat intake (haven't been getting enough of either lately). I went to CJ to get a double six dollar burger monster. I couldn't find it on the...

Fair enough. Just don't confuse the religious/political structures with that of personal faith/philosophy.

As a final thought for an interesting debate topic with other people if you ever get...

Yes, I actually spend a lot of quiet time thinking to myself and have recently had a few entire days to myself just thinking about things. I also know that what is true for you may seem ridiculous in...

Maybe you can better define spirituality and a belief in the supernatural bceause I don't really see how they're fundamentally different.

Can an atheist believe in Karma or positive vibes? Can he feel a magical, sometimes illogical, attachment to a piece of continental plate pushed up by tectonic subsidence? Does his soul feel a...

I have faith that this belongs in this highly constructive discussion of religion/philosophy. Don't hate me because I have...

Also the mythbusters have covered this one. Completely doable.

singing lumberjacks.

I think Stroup may need to reread the original problem statement. Here's a link to a fairly clear statement of the problem and proposed solution: http://www.straightdope.com/columns/060203.html

I believe your assumption that the friction force of rolling tires equally opposes engine thrust is incorrect.

Heh, this episode is going to be like the superbowl for nerds. I wonder if Vegas oddsmakers have...

I-70 is so hard to predict. I accidently slept in and didn't get out the door until 8:15. I thought I was going to be stuck in traffic, but there was only one major slow down where I joined 70 from...

yeah, chocolate is like the food equivalent of bringing a towel. Also...

Don't Panic.

Thanks for all the great suggestions. I forgot my friend had a pair he wasn't using. They should work for the rest of the season.

I finally broke my old aluminum alloy poles the other day at Loveland. I went in to alpenglow to pick up a new pair, but they were selling for $50 which is a little more than I'd like to spend on...

it makes the images spin around in the upper left hand corner of your screen in case you think I'm some kind of script kiddie.

Thanks for showing Anomaly on TV, Altitude. You don't always have the greatest shows. In fact, I usually only watch you for Avalanche games after you stopped showing our college's football games.

Must have been windy. From the video, it looks like the snow was blowing at a completely 90 degree angle. ;)

I'm going to have to say Seefeld (Gschwandtkopf) and Fanningberg, both in Austria. Both were racing trips when I was going to school in Switzerland. I was under the impression that Austrian skiing...

Saw something about this on the news.

We're not in new zealand, why would we care what's happening in the SW pacific?

On a completely unrelated note, the Loveland cafeteria is serving #69 in the background of this picture. Just thought I'd add that since this is in the padded room.

a tangent on the original theme of this thread: everyone has a movie they think the whole world should see at least once.

My movie everybody should see is Hotel Rwanda.

I think people being...

Most pictures for a one picture TR, ever.

Also, they all look amazing.

I'm sorry, I had to bump this for grskier.

Interesting, do you take your Praxis skis to sirdal (Ålsheia, Fidjeland, Ådneram, etc) or do you take them elsewhere on trips? I wouldn't think the terrain/snow in sirdal is Praxis worthy, but it has...

bump because I was looking for info on structuring bases. I've heard of using sand paper, but that makes me a little nervous. Any experience/advice for using a brass riller bar vs sand paper? How...

So I guess an opening tomorrow is out of the question? suck.

"Genesis: even worse than you think"

Wow, that's pretty awful.

oh well, my hero of the day turns out to be fictional, what else is new?

This may be a rerun, but I think it's hilarious.

Opening on the 12th or 13th would be perfect. I have the 15th and the 16th free in addition to the weekend.

I've heard sugar helps, too. Don't know if this is true or not, but probably worth a try.

My parents sent me this article. I thought it was pretty neat.
