I was haunting another forum and there was mention of this incident at Loon which I thought might interest some of you. :blink:

Yeah, who would have thought that this would have happened? At least it was not winter :roll:

I've experienced some long downloads while hiking, but it wasn't at Loon, and I buried them well.

That said, I entertain myself on lifts etc with "What if?" scenarios. I've got MacGuyver plans for every situation. If only I could remember to always carry a stick of chewing gum, two "D" batteries, adn a nickel...

I saw that on the news last night. Pretty freaky, I guess he'll never board a gondola without an attendant present again... ;)
