The inter-patient variability of CYP1A2 enzyme activity makes this calculation (an extrapolation from an LD50) ~ worthless. Pharmacogenetic testing is required for an accurate determination of an individual's succeptability to caffeine toxicity. Thank you for allow nerd to post.

Ray Burbon just game me a few pictures that he took on his trip into the Neacola Range this past May. Here are a couple of Mount Chakachamna from the air. Great pictures! Thanks Ray. Larger images HERE and HERE

You must have this site confused with rockclimbing.com. We are all about seriousness here. Nothing but climbing talk allowed.

Must have something to do with relativity

It's too late now, but the La Sportiva Superfly shoes run small in sizing and don't have much for shock absorbtion in the forefoot. Feathered Friends here in Seattle (used to) carry them, so you could try them on there. Here is a cool parkour VIDEO I remember there was an even cooler one that someone posted a link to a while back, but I can't find it. Anyone? I think the guys were French and they did some urban stuff as well as some stuff in a gymnasium with mats.

HERE they are for $189 if you wear sz 41, 44.5, or 47.5

Doing an image search for "rolleyes" on google gives some.... uh..... STIMULATING... results:

How old are the pipes in your house? What kind of pipes? DANGER DANGER DANGER!!! FEAR FEAR FEAR!!!

Trano'll climb more gooder than the Nepals. Nepals'll be warmer. For winter attempts on Cascade Volcanos, I'd probably go with plastics.

Gato Negro ain't a sport route!

Every time that it is appropriate.

The cracks don't need to be vertical (just straight) to obviate the need for long slings. Also, the whole route need not be straight. Use long draws where the route angles and short draws where it's straight. Saves time + energy to use draws or not have to extend your trippled slings on every piece of gear. In the vantage accident, it seems likely that a biner got loaded over one of those incut edges very common at vantage. If memory serves, it was the gear side biner that broke, not the rope biner, so it didn't matter how long the draw was. I could be wrong about that. Fact remains, most (yes most) of the time, clipping directly to the cam, a short draw, or trippled sling is fine. RE: the original question. If you are primarily sport climbing, get a dozen draws and maybe four 24" (60cm) slings. If primarily trad/alpine climbing, get ~10 24" slings and couple of doubles and take a few quickdraws along. The mammut 8mm slings are obviously the best.

That story ain't as good as any of tricky's. I give it a mild, half-hearted chuckle at best.

Impending doom:

OH NO HE DI'INT! 50 Cent Disagrees with Kanye West

WHERZ MY CAMS BITCH!? It's pretty funny how many people responded on the RC.com thread thinking the story was true.

Cool! Thanks for sharing.

I'M MAD AS HELL! AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!

I think so. It's for a box. I don't know how many are in a box. 36 sounds right.
