Well, this is very unfortunate, but timely given our discussion:? http://www.nationalpost.com/news/story.html?id=1398682
The article regards Natasha Richardson, the actor, who fell while skiing at Tremblant, and was not wearing a helmet.? Looks like a serious head injury, but the newspapers aren't too clear on the exact details.? There may be mitigating factors here, which aren't known publicly yet, as the fall seems not to have been a hard one -- green slope, slow speed, slushy snow.? Doesn't look good, though, for her.? We'll see what comes out in the news in the next few days.....   Hope it turns out for the best.
