quote: Originally posted by Dr Flash Amazing: Ah, DFA knows that. He was making like to joke. You know, like instead of the half-ropes being used side by side, that they were being tied end to end to make one full-length rope. Apparently this was a little too subtle for certain cave-dwelling folk to grasp ... Try typing slower. Maybe that will help.

quote: Originally posted by MF206er: Whatever the case may be I feel like a lesser person and a lesser climber for reading this site and posting on it. The first time I heard of it a friend told me to never look at it. I wish I would have followed his advice. This site is just a ridiculous game that absorbs time and thought and I am sick of it. Well, duh....

quote: Originally posted by Dr Flash Amazing: The beauty of a lot of the new thongs that are out now is that with the curved and cambered last, you get excellent performance out of them without crippling the shit out of your little piggie. Dr. Flash Amazing's last several pairs have all been comfy once broken in, and can be worn for extended bouldering sessions in the gym without causing much suffering.

quote: Originally posted by mr.radon: I have a "Seeing Eye Dog In Training" vest and go wherever I like. I've used this several times inside the park, by law they have to treat you as a handicapped person and therefore due to the American's w/ Disabilites act you can go wherever you please with'em. Looks like you're qualified for a morally handicapped parking space...

I've lost fuel out of my Camping-Gaz and my white gas canisters - but I've always caught the white gas leaks because they smell worse.[/QB] A friend identified the white gas leakage from his Whisperlite by noting the large fireball around the stove.

quote: Originally posted by sexual chocolate: Yes, I think there is the possibility of running a business without money always being the bottom line. One might do it to provide a service to the community, for example, because they care about people, about climbing, etc.. A dated ideal? And maybe the free climbing day on 9/11 is exactly that.

quote: Originally posted by sexual chocolate: BTW, I'm unfortunately quite familiar with VW's history, and I think the egregiously high $15 a day is more proof as to what their motivations are.... Let's see... Their motivation is to make a profit? Oh, the horror. What has capitalism come to?

quote: Originally posted by Chepe: It's really nothing but a shame that the incident happened last September. What the other shame is that Vertical World has figured out a way to make money from it when the hordes come in and rent gear. I'd rather climb for 10$ without such hoopla surrounding the place anyway. Huh? I think this is a nice gesture by VW. I believe many people will have a little extra emotional energy going next week, and physical activity is a good way to burn it off and offers a temporary distraction.

oops...

double oops... [ 09-05-2002, 01:35 PM: Message edited by: Attitude ]

The problem may be technique. Could we get photos showing your handiwork? [ 09-05-2002, 01:36 PM: Message edited by: Attitude ]

quote: Originally posted by Cpt.Caveman: Any punkasses that give me lip I sock em in the jaw or report them to their manager asap. Cpt.Passive-Aggressive speaks... Your answer to everything is to hit, poke, or trundle boulders on it.

A couple years ago, there was a news story about mail theft from rural boxes. Citizens staked out their mailboxes with a video camera, recorded the next theft, and called in the sheriff. Problem solved.

quote: Originally posted by fleblebleb: I read somewhere that black people have a higher ratio of fast vs. slow muscle fibres. I'd suggest you go hit the books again, schoolboy. Or at least the sports page. East African runners have dominated the marathon for years. I think the answer is a little simpler. Most people participate in the sports in which their friends and family participate. Sports as social activity. People tend to segregate themselves in social activities.

quote: Originally posted by jon: Jesus christ allsion I don't care about the boats and the bridges it doesn't bother me that when I'm standing by the bridge waiting for it to close at 3pm on a Wednesday because some guy with a 80 foot mast needs to get through, good for him that he can afford a boat that big and go sailing while I'm working. That kind of shit doesn't bother me. I was just using it as an example for my arguement that tax dollars are often allocated towards specific uses that aid only a small fraction of the tax paying population. In the case of Montake bridge there are probably only a handfull of people who own boats that require there being a bridge there, yet it is still there and maintained and tended. If you noticed I also looked at the counter arguement about why 80 foot mast dude wants his tax money so I can get literally a free ride to work everyday while only a small percentage of the public actually uses it. I think I offered a pretty fair analysis. So how does what your trying to say relate to the fee demo arguement? Ummm... Motorists use the bridge. It goes down to allow cars and peds to cross the cut...
