Gay Marriage Has Tourism Industry Planning - WCAX

The passage of Vermont's same-sex marriage law has some businesses in the tourism industry planning to boost marketing to gay and lesbian travelers.

At a meeting of the Vermont Gay Tourism Association Wednesday morning, innkeepers and tour companies discussed a media campaign and series of events to attract more business to Vermont. They say guests who come here from out-of-state for weddings or civil unions spend an average of $500 per person.

Jeff Connor of the Vermont Gay Tourism Association explains, "Already, people at inns and so forth that had couples for civil unions are getting in touch with those couples and saying, 'Come back and now have a marriage.' So we're hoping for repeat business as well."

Connor says the law sends a message that Vermont is open and welcoming to all visitors, whether or not they're planning a gay wedding.

But during the debate over same-sex marriage, some opponents argued the legislation would actually turn off travelers who don't like the idea of letting gay and lesbian couples marry.

What ever happened to "global warming will wreck the ski industry?"?

Remember when the AGW alarmists were predicting that global warming would ring the death knell of the ski industry?

If you don't, here's a link to one example of such baseless alarmism:

Apparently for the last two years, and three out of four years, the ski season has been characterized by ideal conditions - cold with snow.

So, what happened to the cries of alarm? Why are they among the many global warming predictions that have failed to come to fruition?

Or.... is THIS what they meant? Is the climate threat to the ski industry the number of days in the season when it will be too COLD to ski?

dj I live in NE - Mass. was hit harder economically than much of the country in the late 1980s / early 1990s - simply put, DEMAND fell. Don't rewrite history.

And yes, condos went up - ski condos, like the ones that now adorn the land on which I used to cross country ski, at Waterville, when I was in high school in the 1980s. They don't build condos on mountain slopes!


I'm certain that the Goobers responsible for this failed prediction of doom and gloom will be issuing apologies very soon and no doubt, the mainstream media will give those apologies full coverage! (LOL!!)
