"another senseless groomer death" - come on man! In the entire universe of "senseless death" where does skiing stack up? Nowhere near guns, motorcycles and drugs to name a few, and somewhere in there would be mountain biking.

Sad?? Agreed!  Senseless?? The guy was doing something of his choosing! (maybe at a speed and level of control of his choosing).  Certainly more than we can say for all the guys that have died in Iraq and Afghanistan.  Sad for their families??  Absolutely!  Senseless deaths??  May well be, only history can say!
