recycled is very hit or miss. sammamish valley has historically been a good shop, and i've heard good things about ballard sport.

Not sure if there are any Pandora users here, it's a killer app, but I'm sure most of you use some form of interweb radio. ---------------------- Hi, it's Tim from Pandora, I'm writing today to ask for your help. The survival of Pandora and all of Internet radio is in jeopardy because of a recent decision by the Copyright Royalty Board in Washington, DC to almost triple the licensing fees for Internet radio sites like Pandora. The new royalty rates are irrationally high, more than four times what satellite radio pays and broadcast radio doesn't pay these at all. Left unchanged, these new royalties will kill every Internet radio site, including Pandora. In response to these new and unfair fees, we have formed the SaveNetRadio Coalition, a group that includes listeners, artists, labels and webcasters. I hope that you will consider joining us. Please sign our petition urging your Congressional representative to act to save Internet radio: http://capwiz.com/saveinternetradio/issues/alert/?alertid=9631541 Please feel free to forward this link/email to your friends - the more petitioners we can get, the better. Understand that we are fully supportive of paying royalties to the artists whose music we play, and have done so since our inception. As a former touring musician myself, I'm no stranger to the challenges facing working musicians. The issue we have with the recent ruling is that it puts the cost of streaming far out of the range of ANY webcaster's business potential. I hope you'll take just a few minutes to sign our petition - it WILL make a difference. As a young industry, we do not have the lobbying power of the RIAA. You, our listeners, are by far our biggest and most influential allies. As always, and now more than ever, thank you for your support. -Tim Westergren (Pandora founder)

Well let's hear the rest while your at it!

[geek]I was interested to find that Safari was able to handle those images fine considering it in general is substantially slower the Firefox IMO.[/geek]

Is it hard typing with your head up your ass?? I'm sorry everyone that I haven't posted the poll yet, it takes a while to setup and I've been incredibly short on time. It will be up soon, I promise!

Soon!

Huge thanks to Ketch for bringing the killer A/V equipment. Thanks to everyone who showed slides, they were awesome! Thanks to everyone who showed up!

We haven't released the voting yet. Hopefully later today.

Bring your livers!

I'm locking this thread. See the thread for this years below. http://www.cascadeclimbers.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/ubb/showflat/Number/655344

If you guys could bring those slide projectors that would be great.

I love how all you "enviromentally friendly" people are dumb as a rock. People should take some P Chem before they get their Tree Hugger Card. Recyclable plastic bags, which I find in every grocery store here, require less energy to make, less energy to transport, and less energy to recycle. Ignorance is bliss!

No dumbshit, he works at Initech!

I didn't even need your IP address to figure out where you work. Classic!

CRAZYPOLISHCLOWNPUNCHER!

It's standard protocol for an incoming president to replace all the attorneys from the previous administration.

Picked up the only copy of the book at the UW bookstore, so don't go there

Go ahead.

Still could use a couple more judges.

OH YEAH... forgot one big thing! If you have entered pictures they must be categorized, and one per category! Stop f#$%ing breaking the rules!

A couple notes...... Photo Contest Submission ENDS tomorrow... thats Friday March 23! Prizes... we got some hot shit.. and ID sleeping bag, Icebreaker shirt, CiloGear pack, Feathered Friends down booties, Backcountrygear.com gift certificate, skis!, some misc climbing gear (yes it's new!), and some other stuff. JUDGING... I need a few people to help pick through the pictures and pick the top 5 for each category. People who submit are welcome to help with this section. After we have the top 5 we will open a poll for the whole of cc.com universe to vote. Drop me a PM if you would like to judge.

Hey folks, if you are planning on showing slides could you please PM me even if you have already sent me or Oly one, I just want to confirm that you are showing. Also, if you have a projector or screen available and are willing to bring (dinner on me in return), please send me a PM so we can coordinate.

May the force be with you, Baller!

Well since your computer is essentially worthless I would try threatening them. If you have something like the Better Business Bureau in Canada tell Apple you are filing a report, might get their attention.
