I am somewhat irritated by ZEE's post on the trip reports regarding a fellow Tayer driving from Portland to Baker for skiing and using soo much gas but then that's me.

I respect his/her right for free expression and hope he/she respects mine. If you are going to preach to others you had better be following your own advice.

I would like to suggest in this inceasingly politically correct environment that you fellow skiers before embarking on a road trip for skiing use the following formula and submit it to the ZEE foundation for approval  before going on the trip.

Gas used/ VF skied, e.g.  30/3000=0.01 x100=1%
Ratios below 1% will not be approved.

Decided to hammer him again, eh, Scotty? ;D
I just hope it wasn't a troll  ;)

BTW, thanks for keeping your comments somewhat civil despite your obvious extreme irritation from the comment.
Peace, brother   8)

I agree, however, I think the mpg/person should also factor in. So one guy in a Prius (at 50 mpg) would not be as PC as 8 guys in a Suburban (at 10 mpg).
Also some bonus PC points should be added to helping push/dig and pull other people out of ditches unless they deserve to be there. However, PC points will be subtracted if you drive poorly like the a$$hat in the WRX who insisted on passing on blind corners on hwy 2 last Saturday after cutting me off on at leaving Monroe 2-1 merge hill. If someone see him, please apply a mighty beating with an old ski pole (he is not worth bending a new one on).
Namaste!

At the risk of incurring your wrath: Did you need to single this guy out in the subject line of a post? Unless you know him, and you are joking, I find that a pretty mean-spirited thing to do. Also, it was a fairly innocuous, if a bit self-righteous, post...
I don't buy the "peace to all ski brothers and sisters" in your last post..."peace" would have meant letting it go.

BillK,
Yea ,I singled him out and am unrepentant. Same way he/she singled out the guy who posted the trip report and preached to. Exercised my right to free expression just like him. Don't like it, don't read it.,or get moderator to delete.

Peace still applies, I can vigoruosly disagree without hating.

One good flame deserves another!
