It reminds me of the Thomas & Megahan vs. Jones and Grant peak flow hydrology debates of the late 90's. All settled now with the second generation of hydrology modelling programs definitively answering the question.

"Here comes the Thnikkaman!"

You've got to wonder when they're spooning at the bivi if that sheepskin vest gets turned inside out so the fleecy part makes it seem more like the real thing. Baaa!

Um, no - I was sent the article by the Climate Change automailer I'm signed up to. This is the scientists themselves paying attention to the problem. Not Rush Limbaugh or whoever. I don't doubt though, that guys like Bjorn Lomborg will use this report out of context to argue that climate change is not occurriong or is not a problem.

I'd love some of that global cooling, I could climb all the Fraser Valley waterfalls.

Refute the numbers, not the source. Do it ace. The source is not credible. Fox even managed to note that the numbers were generated via pseudoscience. They are probably both as dumb as woodchucks but so is the American people and the first rule of democracy is "You don't get who you need - you get who you deserve."

Good question but it just doesn't happen!

I'm surprised Fox hasn't reported on who has the bigger dick yet.

Whatever you do don't type "chancre" into Google image search with Safesearch turned off

I dare you to look!

in this article: http://www.jamestown.org/publications_details.php?volume_id=397&&issue_id=2907 one potential outcome of the iraq conflict is predicted as a new American isolationism. Sounds like Badnarik would bring that about. No doubt the Arabs, Chinese and Europeans would welcome it.

i have some each way, it all depends...

work safe but not "just ate" safe

i dunno tex. sport climbers, when redpointing and not pinkpointing, have draws on the harness. so when you throw a rack of gear around your neck and leave draws on the harness, you look like.... a sportclimber in trad drag. whereas with gear on the harness you look properly trad, like maybe you should have a pin hammer on there too with a pint of stout in your chalk bag, crack scarred hands and a helmet with slash marks from a peregrine's beak.

yeah whats a 3 month old infant doing drinking and driving?

Yeah but Batso's book is a collector's item, I read it in a library once but this is the first copy I've owned.

directly in contact with foreign powers? like this?

Is that Duran Duran from Barbarella in the first picture

Finally obtained a copy of this famous book. Semper farcissimus! One for the Batso.

Friday: flunky worky Saturday: party, leave party, find other party Sunday: chase Unimog with 2 hr head start, lose race, go for a hike, visit parents, give out candy.

The "mortal ice" tends to come in a bit later but it sounds like King Creek is phat right now and there is a fair bit of easier stuff there. Haffner could be bone dry or thick depending. Last year it fattened up only because of forest fire no one went in there until Dec. Two years ago, pre fire it got beat so much by mixed climbers in early season that ice never formed. Cascade can come and go fast as its so low. Urs Hole is better in early season. Mostly your best bets in Nov will be high in the K-Country or up the Icefields Parkway. Gravsports says Arterial Spurt is in, thats a good 200m WI3 near Canmore.
