We had great fun drawing massive long tick marks and numbering the holds on Alien Nation, but unfortunately they didn't show up on the photos very well.

The evidence for the prosecution looks good but it's not enough to convict me! :chase:

Anyone whose been to the tor recently will recognize these little beauties. These have been adorning Hubble for a good month now. I've managed to track down the owner as a Mr Markus Bock no-less, I shit you not!  :lol:  :lol:

How would a tick mark help if you're totally blind?  Surely some kind of bleeper would be more appropriate.

You could have like brialle marks or something, but then i'm thinking that if you're blind, hubble probably isn't on your list.

Anyone been on Sheffield dryslope and seen that blind woman skiing - respect is due.

Where I worked in the US was the ski centre for the NSCD (National Sports Centre for the Disabled). I would have blind skiers getting on my chairllift on a daily basis, massive respect to them, as well as the sit skiers and the guys skiing on one leg. One guy could get on our fixed grip lift (ie ones that dont slow down as they enter the terminal) without us needing to slow it down. He used to go in the terrain park, ride in trees and the half pipe too.
