The longest on-topic thread in recent history - What it takes

Fundamental motivations: An intellegent newbie female skier shows up
and the longest on-topic thread in recent history on RSA results. I'm
sure it didn't hurt Lisa's popularity that she is also into
photography, since lots of outdoors guys/geeks are into that as well.

Just from who posted what in this thread, I'm going to hazard a guess
that Kurt and Eagle are both single and lookin'.

I know about Lal, Bev and myself, but on the basis of number of posts
and content, I'm going to guess that Foot and Astro are also either
happily married or members of the over-the-hill crowd, or both.

The big surprise is where is Jim Strohm!!!!

Letsee ... did I leave out anyone (or two) obvious folks? :evil:

Presumed female - where's Horvath with the tank top / shorts request?
And it'd be on topic for once, cause it's Spring Skiing out there and
lots of tank tops and/or shorts are showing up; I for one broke out the
flowery short sleeve prints in March this year, only to be sandbagged by
the wonderfully foul weather of the last couple of weeks - gawd, it was
nice to be cold again.

Presumed? Ah, I guess it is Usenet, after all I'm a little old for
tank tops, and the shorts come out once the temp hits 80. Under 50, I
bundle up.

At any rate, I should probably mention that I am most emphatically not
single, although my other half has less than zero interest in skiing

My theory: Watch the response rate in the main thread take a nose
dive.

And the SO was mentioned a long time ago. Besides, everyone should know by
now, this may be the place to meet skiing/drinking buddies, but dating?
Good luck.

Until proven wrong, all young male skier will assume otherwise.

Oops - that'll make it tougher; no wonder you're having trouble getting
back up. Does he like snowshoeing? Snow camping? Astronomy?

I took the current (and only ever) missus on a skiing holiday first
date, to check her true potential as a significant other. Since she had
never skied before, and since she skied two days in miserable wet
snowfall and LIKED IT, I figured she was a Possible.
