Poster: A snowHead
|
9200 posts and counting. We must all wonder why? David has entertained me for 2 years with interesting and original facts and stories. I've figured that all the time spent in pursuit of skiing information he must be writing a book and if not he should be. I'm sorry if in your many posts you have already admitted it but I don't have the time to read all of them.
If there is a book in the pipeline we should all be proud of our contributions.

David has cerebral implant that enables him to post without the need to type. It's also Intel Centrino-based, so he can even post from anywhere at anytime. Actually, he's directly connected to The Grid.

Hi chris, and thanks for counting.
Nobody's asked. I'll respond in more depth if there's general interest in the thread.
You're certainly not unwittingly contributing to a book or any other use of your postings without your express permission and agreement. I've no rights to them and - and as far as I can make out - no one else has any rights* to them.
From a personal point of view this project is a fascinating 'development', having been involved in ski writing for nearly 30 years. It's the most honest and substantial archive of ordinary skiers' information and views since British skiing began ... as far as I know (not to forget all snowHeads overseas).

OK. I'm doing my best, but I can only generate laundry at a given rate.
I can send the family's duvets round if you're having a quiet week.
