Ski Lift Running on Solar Power

Why don't you just email the ski resort? They would be able to answer all your questions without the mindless speculation.

Pablo, what a good idea

What's their e-mail address?

Contact the Swiss tourist office here:

www.myswitzerland.com

They will be able to put you in touch with the relevant people.

Secondly, try Westendorf (Austria) who have a solar powered rope tow:

www.westendorf.net

Finally, use your common sense! If you really want to find out about something the internet is a great resource. All I did was use Google to obtain information... you should try it.

WOW

What?! I have been perfectly reasonable and helpful all through Solar-gate.

We could have a whole new thread which could lead to...Google-gate

wanders off to do some stirring elsewhere

Seriously Ally, go do something that will add value to your life.

Bandit,
I am doing something that will add value to my life, thanks

I am considering which new form of eco-friendly technology to add to our various businesses. And researching photo-voltaic solar cells is very interesting. So far it has only confirmed what I already thought - that there are better, cheaper, more efficient new technologies out there. But when they have improved the PV system, I might be interested. The hot water type of solar panels seem much more efficient.

Thanks Pablo, and it's okay Brooksy, I have an older daughter much the same age as Pablo and she's always trying to teach me how to suck eggs as well

I am very fond of Pablo (and my daughter!). And they are both definitely better than me when it comes to things like using Excel or designing web pages, or, in Pablo's case ski-ing I am very grateful for their help at times, when it's something I'm totally out of date with. And I think it's very nice that on this forum there are many people of different ages and with different skills and knowledge to contribute to these discussions.

And I can take a leg-pull as well as anyone else

Pablo, I was actually interested to see if you could find the e-mail address of the resort's tourist information office directly, because I had failed. I can do it indirectly quite easily, in various ways, like phoning that editor again. I am just amazed that a resort that none of us seem to be able to find anything about is splashing out on this very fancy drag lift. As someone else said, it would be nice to know how long this drag lift is etc. etc.

I will have another go at it on Monday

Thanks everyone,

Ally
