Re: Science Rant, Not politics: Can CO2 cause "Climate Change?"

"Exploration and development costs include labor and materials needed for drilling and developing oil and gas wells and coal mines. Independent oil and gas producers (i.e., those without related refining and marketing operations) may deduct these costs from income in the year incurred, even tho...

Re: Science Rant, Not politics: Can CO2 cause "Climate Change?"

To argue that tax credits and/or tax deductions are not the same thing as direct subsidies misses the point. A direct subsidy is simply a more direct form of subsidization than credits or deductions. Both are designed and implemented to encourage specific behaviors and decisions on the part of cons...

Re: Science Rant, Not politics: Can CO2 cause "Climate Change?"

I have no problem with subsidizing EVs. We have lots of subsidies for fossil fuel production through the tax code, much like we have subsides for many other endeavors, including home ownership. I'd like to dig into this a little deeper. The EV credit is a true subsidy, it is a payment from the gove...

Rogman didn't even read the article and can't accept that maybe the current climate change (the climate has always changed) isn't headed for catastrophe.

NOBEL LAUREATE: “CLIMATE SCIENCE HAS METASTASIZED INTO MASSIVE SHOCK-JOURNALISTIC PSEUDOSCIENCE” He's not a climatologist, but another octogenarian PhD (granted, Nobel prize winner in quantum physics for work done in the 70's) pontificating on an area of science way outside of his expertise. His ma...

Re: Epic Passes for 2023-2024

If you think paid parking is only a Vail Resorts Issue, read this about our sister POWDR resort in Colorado. Or what about A-Basin which is on the IKON pass? How long before the K1 lot is a pay lot? https://www.summitdaily.com/news/coppers-alpine-lot-could-charge-for-parking-next-season-following-a...

Re: sunday 2/19 report

Today was proof that the IKON passes are the true reason for the Saturday crowds over the last couple of years Holiday wknds are less crowded than normal wknds the last few years Ikon passes are not to "blame" for anything. Only the 4 day IKON pass has holiday blackouts, the full Ikon pas...

Re: Brighton/Solitude

I just booked a nice 4 bedroom condo on Wasatch Blvd between Big and Little Cottonwood Canyons and right across the street (4 min/0.2 mile walk) from a bus stop for the aforementioned ski bus that can take you to either SB/Alta or Brighton/Solitude. It's not "on mountain" but it's easy acc...

Re: Kusher, Saudis, and $2 billion

Who knows if influence/favors were sold in either case. Is Kushner legitimately in the business of receiving large investments to manage? Because Hunter Biden surely wasn't qualified to sit on the board of Burisma. That might a difference worth considering.

Publicly available EV charging in Killington

Considering going EV. Was just looking at the F150 Lightning. 300 mile range means I can't get to K and back on a full charge. Apparently no EV charging stations anywhere near K. Am I correct? Too bad none of the lots have "EV spots" with chargers so my vehicle could charge while I ski or ...

Re: Two Black Hawks crash into each other above Snowbird

I was at Snowbird on Wednesday, crash happened on Tuesday. Skied down the Mineral Basin and saw the two helicopters about 150 yards beyond the Mineral Basin lower terminal. The area around the choppers was roped off and guarded by three Army dudes standing about 30 feet behind the corral. There's a ...
