Remember the skiers at Whistler some years ago who, while skiing at
dusk were getting their heads raked by an unknown assailant? I think
they were more at risk if they were wearing red hats...some needed
lots of stitches. It was finally decided that the culprit was a great
horned owl nest-defending.
