I kind of like the idea that I'm in charge of what I'm going to do on the slope. I don't want the gates to hit me, so I'm going to hit them.

But, I went down. After that, which I think was back in second grade, I just got into it. And, back in eighth grade, I got into it competitively.

I said, 'No way - I'm not going down.

The idea that we can make all things safe for all behaviors is in itself a dangerous and slippery slope.

If this is a countrywide kind of preparedness thing, we should make use of the idea, ... We have a lot of tourists that come through our area and if they happen to be separated from their group and for whatever reason are alone and have no other identification but their cell phone, this could make a world of difference.
