- The daily ski reports on the Colorado Travelbank are a good service. They're
- also available via a recording from Colorado Ski Country, USA at (303)
- 831-7669. I believe that Colorado Ski Country personnel are actually updating
- the TravelBank BBS.
-
- The rest of the TravelBank BBS is the pits. The "information" stored therein
- is several years out of date. For money-saving information to the resorts,
- no information is better than out-of-date information.
-
- Even worse, the SysOp (presumably, Jay) is censoring messages that people post
- to the BBS. I asked repeatedly about the timeliness of the money-saving
- information. Each time, my messages were immediately erased.
-
- If you're a fan of out-of-date information and censorship, the Colorado
- TravelBank BBS is a great place. If you want a ski report, the Colorado Ski
- Country recording will work just fine.

- Hopefully, Jay won't try to censor *this* message....
