Vipa, Do you realise that bright red helicopters are the mountain visual equivalent to graffiti in town centres? White choppers are much less intruding. You must not care a jot about the mountain environment. Now go whip yourself in shame!!!

Sorry, I really am tired now. Your level of debate is simply not one to which it is worth stooping and your preaching is of no interest to me. Good night.

I may not always agree with what she writes, but I recognise Hurtle as one of the most literate snowHeads. Your abuse of her is misplaced, IMV.

Hurtle, I too am tired. I've not done any work for the last 3 hours so am happy to agree that we disagree on this and possibly many other things.

no abuse ever took place and no animals or people were injured in the making of this post.
You may observe that any perceived personal insults started from other posters comments. Mine remain and will always remain defensive.

johnnyh, FWIW, I think it would be A Bad Thing if lots of skiers took to the skies in helicopters, so to that extent I agree with you: that was not my point, however. I shall leave others to judge my debating skills: they have, as it happens, served me rather well in my life.

You lost actually. Banning heli-skiing will make no difference to the climate. All you've done is engage in a silly bit of tokenism.

You know it makes sense.

johnnyh, oh dear. To clarify:

1)
Quote: |

Note emboldened words.
2) But I know that lots of skiers do not and will not take to the skies in helicopters, so I'm not that bovvered.
OK?

No it isn't - it's insulting. Get a dictionary!
Quote: |
Again, I never said you should, just that it would help if some people considered their actions more. |
I think that's embedded in all our skulls now. Just to be clear, is it possible to consider heli-skiing and then do it with a clear conscience?

I was on my own was I? Funny there was a lot of other engagers here when I last looked.
laundryman, you're a **** now that's insulting! But I didn't mean it, I just wanted to type it for effect.
I do have a dictionary thank you.
For the last f-in time consider it and then (if you're still a ****) go forth and destroy the planet with your heli-skiing.
There. If like me you are bored with this thread please feel free to exit at anytime.

What about Surfers being towed into waves by Jet-Skis and being filmed by Helicopter?

Excellent. I've flushed out your thesis in all its glory. And I think it's been amply demonstrated by many above to be utter garbage.

no stress here, just referring to an earlier bigoted comment from the dude with the big opinions, abuse breeds abuse.

No it's not. That's not the right word at all. It's a statement about the kinds of people I prefer to be friends with and the values they share. Why do you have a problem with that? Why is that suggesting I am in someway morally better than you? I suggest you come back and discuss this when you have finished your GCSEs then we might begin a proper debate - now that is sanctimonious. |
Seeming as you mentioned GCSEs. Want to tell us what's wrong with this sentence of yours?

Hurtle, you should head immediately to the thread about the dogtag advert to watch thefatcontroller and Lizzard engage in a protracted, and thoroughly erotic, mating ritual instead.

paulio, oh, is that what it is? Looks like thefatcontroller indulging his taste for soft porn to me. Still, makes a change from emoticon-itis. Never mind, I'm recovering my good mood by watching Mad Men at the moment. Superb.

because the noise of helicopters rattling about annoys the majority of people who live there, so their elected representatives have chosen to ban it. In a crowded area like the French Alps the trend is to less helicopter flights, less quad bikes, less snowmobiles etc.. I've already mentioned that Pralognan is moving against illegal helipickups.
I assume in Valdez a lot of people depend on heliskiing so put up with any noise issues.
