That's Alberto, The Ice Emperor. He's getting a bit long in the tooth by now, but back in the day I think he won the annual ice race four years running. It wasn't unusual up until several years ago for the guys (and gals) to dress up a bit, have a bit more fun with it than they do now. A few of the old-timers still do, but I think there were maybe two or three guys that did it this year, including Alberto. I think he placed second in his first two heats then got eliminated somewhere around the quarter or semi-finals. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
