I'm not even going to debate this anymore. You talk as if you have the knowledge and experience of Tim Mueller or Jay Gamble. Thing is, nearly everyone I've met with anywhere near that experience doesn't talk with such an egotistical, condescending tone. You have what many people in the lower rungs of the industry have – some isolated knowledge and a big ego that draws unarguable conclusions, at least in your opinion. Call me a fool if you want, I’m not going to point out the abundance of holes in your rebuttal. I'll just politely nod at your conclusions and encourage you to read this thread in 2 years.

Awesome.....so you don't even have a comeback. I just blew you out of the water, and you haven't come down yet.

Let me tell you a couple things.

- People in the industry aren't always right. They are too busy running their business to see the macro picture, including their market. In fact, they may be very, very wrong sometimes....and yet will practice intense self dilusion. You're just ticked that I've called you out on your baseless statements.

- I've met and skied with "Tin Woodsman". He is a very astute business man and an avid skier. He does not practice self dilusion. Take his advice. I also take the advice of many other good men and women.

- Your Killington privilages have been revoked. I will be here at every turn, ready with more info and a more convincing analysis. Everybody else can choose who to believe. I would suggest that you be more thoughtful and convincing in the future.....and more correct, if you choose to debate me.

- Sorry for being condescending towards you - fact is, I have read many of your posts on this matter, and have little respect for you in this subject area. I've read some of your other non-Killington threads here and you seem like a decent guy. You just don't have as much info as you should, and you aren't making valid analysis. Do you even ski at Killington?

- I am in a very honest and intense closed feedback loop on my personality, analysis, and actions. Underestimate me at your own peril.

I don't have a comeback because I said I'm not going to bother debating you on this anymore. Say what you want about it, I don't really care. There's an old saying in the industry, "I've probably forgotten more about the ski industry than you know." Cheers.

I was thinking of buying the Pico only pass, but now I'm leaning towards the Killinton Blackout pass. Guess I better make up my mind by tomorrow :)


And better make sure there are no hidden fees :wink: Oh wait--been there, done that.

So you guys have two K-mart blackout passes? Sweet.....

You know what I might have done? Offered the K-Mart blackout pass with either access to Pico on holidays, or a $20 lift ticket there. Maybe that would have quelled criticism.
