PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

I was curious about that remark too. But they never explained it.

LAST EDITED ON 11-25-04 AT 11:12 AM (EST)Me too! We have to do some digging! Let's see... was there an Olympics there in 1952??? ETA: 1952 Winter Olympics Oslo Norway... check! Speed Skating (500m) Silver Medal won by a Donald McDermott... is this him? I can only find medal winners, not all participants. Opening ceremony was likely held at the location of the ski jump. hmmm... interesting!

In his bio, I think he is listed as 69 years old, so it is very possible for him to have been a spectator there.

As a 23 year old backpacker this past summer I found myself at the ski jump (was there in June). First, to those stupid girls who can’t drive it's very easy to find using public transit. Second, one of the things I remember about the whole “tourist site” was that it had undergone a number of size increases and renovation over the past many years. In fact, at the jump, they have a whole wall on the outside of the museum showing shadow diagrams of the many stages of its height. I remember thinking to myself that “that old dude’s comment is inaccurate” because the ski jump would not have been the same 52 years ago. Maybe it was too dark for Don to see that. Also I’m pissed because the zip line is not an actual tourist attraction.
