Hi Jim,

My early response to this has something to do with free milk and cows.  Basically, why would you pay for something that you can get for free.  Epic has much of this information available, and you can PM the author if you have any questions that weren't covered in the review.  I guess if the only POV that you are interested in is, for example, how skis perform using PTMS technique then this would work, but you would have to substantially limit the ski reviewers who are allowed to post.  No problem if Peter doesn't want me to get ski review info here.  I would think though that another business model would be to generate ad revenue by hilighting ski reviews.  Of course, journalistic integrity would be suspect...

Without much thought, that is my $0.02.
