We're #2, we're #2... oh wait... that is 2nd most bad, nothing to cheer about. At least we're still first in energy consumption. power

Reinhold Messner used to walk around town holding snowballs in his hands to toughen them and desensitize them to cold. obviously it diverted blood flow away from his brain thus explaining the bizarre Messnerese the guy speaks.

if he honestly forgot his lunch... i share. but if he deliberately forgot his lunch cause he knew i will feed him, the bastard can stand to lose some weight! c'mon matt lets not get the simple platitudes going cause they are so easy to subvert. [ 02-01-2002: Message edited by: Dru ]

so, having made my point on consumption, at least my drive to Lillooet is shorter than yours.... i will make up for it by drinking more beer than you. at least beer is a renewable resouce

Consumption is just as big a problem as overpopulation. If every person consumed at the level North Americans do it would take 8 more planets to support us all. If we were to standardize population indices by resource consumption level that would show the USA having a larger effective population than India's and almost the same as China's.

Fairweather sez: "Anytime a report is released by the UN it seems to be light on science and heavy on left wing agenda, if one takes the time to read the fine print. By the way...The Kyoto Treaty WAS NOT about cutting CO2 emissions; it was about the re-distribution of wealth."

go to a second hand kayaking or diving store and buy the bottom half of a wetsuit

on Sat. the top was fat and the stream gully at the bottom was all rock. the first bowl you climb into at the top of the stream gully, where Synchronicity and Synchrotron diverge, had no ice and it looked like it might be hard to get to the start of the fat ice. also it was dumping snow. HOWEVER it has been cold for a week, so...

My friend Josie did one of those adventure races. I think you had to run across the South island of New Zealand or something. she got 5 hrs of sleep in 6 days or something like that en route to a 2nd place ? finish for her team. not bad for a girl who redpoints 13a on her wedding day.... and climbs crazy mountaineering FAs with crazy Fred Touche... sorry mtnrgr though, she was never in the military.

In Canada, those "chain on a bolt with no hangar" things are known as "Barley anchors" because the only one who places them is cheap bastard Robin Barley - that is, when he's not skipping a bolt placement in favor of a 'drilled V-thread' (chipped nut placement) that you supposedly can place a #4 Wild Country Rock in.

fixing a rope to seed a pillar has been tried and does not work. in fact one time at johnston canyon, it ripped the anchor out that the rope was attached to!
