I'm sorry I asked about passport issues. I don't know if I'll ever go to
Russia to heliboard, but I was wondering if you ran into the types of problems the group from Teton Gravity encounterd when the Russian segment of "Soul Purpose" was filmed. Based on what you have said the answer is, "No". Dean |

Neal/Champ: Like your page.
Have a SONY DCR TRV 820 with a 25X OpZoom lens camcorder 8mm digital tape with many images of skiing terrain, people and facilities in the Iran mountains, just North of Tehran taken years ago during the Shah days before the revolution. Please advise how we can set up a photo album display like you have beautifully developed for your Russian pics. What album site do you, or can you, use for some of your photos ? Any and all suggestions most appreciated. FYI: We use the WebtvPlus receiver and a new DELL computer. Many thanks Neal, 3/2/05 |

Mentioned Iran skiing development and experience in a recent post. FYI:
Embedding a recent IRAN SKI URL. Our experience dates back to the days of the SHAH before the rev. with women skiing in robes over ski pants, etc. Showed pics at our Iran-American Chamber of Commerce in NYC and their DC Embassy. They loved it all. Note the ski area mtns North of Tehran are over 18,000'...higher than most European resorts. Enjoy a different view for a chamge !. ----------------------------------------------------- GoSki Iran Address:http://www.goski.com/iran.htm Changed:7:29 PM on Wednesday, March 2, 2005 Paul 3/2/05 |

I don't get those magazines, and I don't have the movie. Or is there simply a segment with a voice over that says "yeah, we had problems with corruption and bribery.
