anonymous consistently uses a figure of 40 to 50 grand per night to make snow on the ss trail... <BR>1) he refuses to provide any verification for that claim <BR>2) he uses a number ( 40 to 50 k ) in his argument that supports his argument and also uses a number ( 10 mid week skiers ) which is obviously not true, to support his argument. it's obvious even to the biggest simp, that there are more than 10 midweek skiers at k in the spring. i won't claim to know how much it cost to run the snow guns on SS per night, ( i'd be nice if someone from k would come on here and give some legit info ) but anyone on this chat who is accepting the claim by this guy anonymous of 40 to 50 k per night as being necessarily true when he refuses to provide any substantiation or basis of fact and when a known reliable source like tony c puts out a figure ( that even he admits may not be accurate ) that is almost 4 times less than that for another area and trail, well, let's just say that anonymous' premise becomes highly suspect. this guy is saying that it would cost 1.6 million dollars to lay down a 20 foot base on SS over the course of a winter/certain amount of days. i have to believe that the base depth on SS has been done before. i refuse to believe that a ski area outlayed 1.6 million dollars to do it... that's a ludicrous figure. almost as ludicrous as this guy's claims and statements ( and why won't you answer the questions about bumps? and the questions about when you contadict yourself... A man's m.o is to respond/reply to questions he has a response to and to ignore the one's he does not.. this exposes him as having an agenda.. this gets lost in a long thread like this with all the various posts.. some one else ought to call this guy on the carpet too. ) " i can't reveal my sources "...what are you, anonymous, bob woodward and watergate? <BR>and unlike you A man, i can respond to your questions... the hockey analysis come from the fact that arficial means are used to maintain ice in the summer time in rinks. ice generally is a natural product of the winter time. so , one should be able to understand that ice hockey, would, without artifical means, be a winter time activity. snow also , in most worlds ( not sure what world u are living in A man ) is a winter product, but also, through artificial means , can be made/maintained artificially during times that are not considered winter periods. as for your assertion that the figure used to make the snow on the SS could be used for the host of other things you name, i just outright dispute your figure of 40 to 50 K / 1.6 million... you might be right, why won't you go on the record and prove it. based on what you have said, i could make a claim of less than one third of figure and have as much credibiility as you have, which is none, because you refuse to document your claim... that's why i don't take any of your arguments seriously ... i think your whole premise may be flawed
