Re: Rickety old defunct lifts.

In the late 1970s there was an old wooden T-bar at Pico, the location of which I can’t recall. The wood was in such bad shape that it actually snapped and broke while my ex wife and I were taking it uphill.

Re: Can the Republican Party Be Saved?

Yes, the Romans literally killed Jesus but they were merely following the wishes of the Pharisees and the mob. The Jews were responsible. However, that was 2000 years ago. T oday, there is no grudge against Jews by most Christians, just as we don't begrudge Germany and Japan for what they did in WW...

Re: Timing of Killington Forward

The parking and shuttle situation isn't going to be any different than most of Killington's competitors. Mount Snow, Stratton, and Okemo require a shuttle from most of their lots, especially if you don't arrive early. Which is why many have argued that close-in parking gives Killington a competitiv...

In her meeting with Kim Jong Un, he told her it was OK.

Re: Can the Republican Party Be Saved?

More unbelievable ignorance! From Matthew 27: Did you actually read what you just posted? I mean, it's right there. The Jews didn't actually do any crucifying. The Romans did. Pilate's cute little attempt to pass off the blame isn't something that would hold up in any court anywhere. He's the one w...

Re: Timing of Killington Forward

If they eliminate all Snowshed and Ramshead parking, I wonder how many of those people will go to Bear or Skyeship rather than deal with a shuttle? And therein lies the biggest downside for the village as presently located. The people who park at Snowshed and Ramshead by and large will not be going...

Re: Middle East situation

What was markedly different before 2015 was that the U.S. wasn't producing more than it consumed. From a strictly economic perspective, so long as the price wasn't fixed, an export ban didn't really matter because there was never enough local supply anyway. Once the U.S. started producing more than...

Re: Middle East situation

We had an export ban on oil for years which only ended within the past decade or so.

Re: Middle East situation

Iran threatens the US far less than it threatens Israel. If anyone should or would take aggressive action against Iran it most likely would be Netanyahu.

Re: Can the Republican Party Be Saved?

I've written this here before on numerous occasions, but immigration, both legal and illegal, is a boon to the economy. Always has been, always will be. It's not rocket science. A declining population means a declining economy - fewer consumers, fewer workers. A growing population contributes to a ...

Re: Can the Democrat Party be saved?

I heard an expert on the news this morning suggesting that if these naive kids are having any effect on the conflict, it's to prolong it. Israeli media and Al Jazeera are giving these protests wall to wall coverage. Hamas is praising them, and Israelis are feeling very marginalized by them. What it...
