From www.animalliberationfront.com "ALF Mission Statement / Credo The Animal Liberation Front (ALF) carries out direct action against animal abuse in the form of rescuing animals and causing financial loss to animal exploiters, usually through the damage and destruction of property. The ALF's short-term aim is to save as many animals as possible and directly disrupt the practice of animal abuse. Their long term aim is to end all animal suffering by forcing animal abuse companies out of business. It is a nonviolent campaign, activists taking all precautions not to harm any animal (human or otherwise). Because ALF actions are against the law, activists work anonymously, either in small groups or individually, and do not have any centralized organization or coordination. The Animal Liberation Front consists of small autonomous groups of people all over the world who carry out direct action according to the ALF guidelines. Any group of people who are vegetarians or vegans and who carry out actions according to ALF guidelines have the right to regard themselves as part of the ALF " Seems to me like they've fallen short on their mission this time. And it also seems to me that they are all about the LIBERATION OF ANIMALS. I heard from a local out here that the the road kill of minx imediatly after the "liberation" was pretty disturbing.

Who defines what constitutes eco-terrorism ? If I were the ruthless CEO of a company intent on developing and effectively destroying a rock climbing area, would that constitute eco-terrorism? A) I don't know but if I had to guess, probably the Feds. B) Call up and ask the FBI.

Is certainly not doing these animals any favors - News Update: Most minks back on the farm SEATTLE POST-INTELLIGENCER STAFF Owners of a Sultan mink farm targeted in an apparent eco-terrorism attack in August have recovered about 9,000 minks, but they are now grappling with another problem -- cannibalism. Since the break-in, police have been flooded with reports of dead, trapped or loose minks -- including attacks on a menagerie of exotic birds, a Labrador retriever and a flock of chickens. While those calls are tailing off, the minks have also been seen eating fish in local rivers; one even turned up at a fruit stand on the edge of town last week. Farm workers are also finding the occasional rib-skinny straggler from the estimated 10,000 animals turned loose from their cages six weeks ago. About 1,000 are still missing or presumed dead. Because unrelated animals tend to attack one another when housed in pens together, the bigger problem now is keeping the recovered minks from killing each other. Before the break-in, only siblings were kept in cages together. After escapees were rounded up, workers couldn't tell which animals were related anymore. "The mink are fine when they're littermates together, but when they're not, they're quite vicious and they're cannibals," said Kate Roesler, whose husband co-owns Roesler Bros. Fur Farms. "They do eat each other, and that's what we're battling." In an e-mail, the Animal Liberation Front, a network of animal rights activists who engage in economic sabotage of fur farms, pet stores, laboratories and other commercial enterprises, took credit for the mink release. The FBI is still investigating, and no arrests have been made.

I got a message for you -

I've had very good experience with the 3 pairs of New Balance trail runners I've had. I don't run trails a lot, but, have put 500 miles of running on each pair with no problems.

Sounds like Adrian got carried away with the "light and fast" approach. Did you guys consider just soloing the route? Did you find any natural pro? Just wondering. Too bad about your knee, hope you heal fast.

The times are fine for slow fatboy climbers like me!

erik: Dude, you're going to be ok! You should drink some water and try to lie down. It would help to know what color the pills were that you took. Don't resist the big guys with the white coats, they are your friends, just go with them...

Did some driving over the weekend and looked at the colors.

sounds like a dwaynerism. That's a cute picture of your mother though!

as if!

that's a personal attack if I ever saw one.

I vote for all of the above - LAYBACK!

I was just looking at this face (to the NW) from Evergreen Mountain lookout on Saturday wondering about winter routes. I've cut some nice Christmas trees near the face and always planned to check it out. I guess Steve beat me to it. Access problem my ass

My head nearly exploded reading that. You should put a disclosure in your auto sig that people with small cranial capacity may not survive reading your posts with all thier brain tissue intact.

I have some for glacier travel and just in case use only. You could probably find these on Ebay for half of that price.

I call BS on both points. Nice troll
