    I think these are the same people who opened the indoor water park in eastern Penn., which has been a huge success.

    Which means you're still looking at 85-90 many summer days.

    More power to them if they can pull it off, but so far I'm having a hard time picturing it.

    Though it DOES bring us closer to hell freezing over ...

    That would be pretty cool if it works. What will lift tickets be, though? $500?

    There's an indoor version near Tokyo somewhere. Discovery's got programs about it that run from time to time.

    Well, a side benefit is that the cooler temperatures will keep his face from melting, but he can never leave the mountain.

    And a phrase I didn't imagine ever reading in my lifetime (from the site).

    "largest indoor snow experience of its kind anywhere in the world."

    Indoor snow experience?

    Some of us go indoors to get rid of the experience.

    Save your money and fly to Whistler.

    Yeah, I gotta see this environmentally-friendly technology...if a breaker or something blows on the mountain in July, won't the whole thing melt in about 15 minutes and flood the village? Save the women and children first!
