    Have fun skiing, Karl.

    Just like with running, I can never listen to music while I’m skiing. I’ve got to hear what’s going on around me, plus I love the sounds of the skis gliding through the snow.

    Love your selection, BTW. Especially tossing The Prodigy in there. If you haven’t seen them live, you must. You feel every note.

    I agree - I like to hear when what’s under my skis turns from snow to ice! Skiing on ice isn’t such a big problem . . . provided that you know it’s there. ;-)

    The music’s for getting in the mood . . . listening for on the way to Semiconductor Physicist’s house . . . playing very loud at dawn to get the rest of the chalet up & at ‘em . . . etc.

    Thanks for the playlist. I’ve been kind of stuck in the 70’s 80’s and 90’s. My friend just gave me a cd, but it had too much gangsta rap on it for my taste. :)
