- Dale, Dale, Dale...Not true! The snow glows in the dark. Everyone skis in
- Lab coats. You have to have a Q Clearance to ski there. The FBI searches all
- vehicles in the parking lot. They have NO snow. The lift lines are ridiculously
- long. The place is run by Nuclear Physicists. And on and on and on.
