Wow, I stand corrected. Those are some giant white sand dunes. Does anyone know if the skiing is any good?

Ouch, I guess my sarcasm in the second message didn't come across. My deepest sympathies to the families that suffered a loss with this slide. Originally Posted by Hugh Conway

49 rescued?! Wow, thats a lot of people caught!
Tehran isn't that different from Salt Lake City in terms of weather and geography. Given the nature of this thread I'll make no jokes about religious or drinking similarities. But im sure somebody will.
Maybe, just once, someone will call me 'Sir' without adding, 'You're making a scene.'.
