  1. If I wasn't clear in my answer please let me know. GregW - I understood your answer, but I think it's that very belief that makes me puzzled. The way I see it is that the military is a branch of or a tool of the administration. Most of the time the people in the military have chosen to be there, no? Obvious exception when there is a draft or likewise. So... in my reasoning the people in the military are choosing to do the will of the government. Now if you don't agree with what the government has chosen to do, then why should you support the people who have chosen to help them do it? I understand thinking of them as individuals and all. I mean if it was a brother/cousin/friend of mine in the army/navy, I would be all for them getting back alive and all, but I don't think I would agree with what they were doing...
  2. tomcat - I asked Gregw why someone should support the soldiers even if they didn't agree with the reasons for the war. You obviously agree with going to war. So you don't really help answer my question. Thanks for coming out though.
  3. OK granted they are not "my boys" and it is not my country, but why the f#$% would you support something if you doon't agree with it???
  4. From canada.com : Typo in the news wire??? CAA bulletin says for South Coast: The WB web site is down, maybe they really did get buried!

    No, he just has a new computer... dru at home! snoboy is the brand under which we proudly market our fresh produce snoboy is clubbed in the head with the stick before he can even say anything that's all folks.
  8. Wouldn't an L-shaped piece work just as well? Aluminum might be strong enough, and certainly lighter than SS. I know you can usually find that sort of stuff easier than T's.
  9. I dunno what plastic the boots are made from, but I know they can weld plastic kayaks back together...

    Kamloops?

    Kamloops is in the middle of everything. Not too much in town, but not too far from anything. One of the reasons the Adventure Tourism program is based there. I have climbed there at the Beach, and at Roche Lake. They are both OK sport crags. If you go to the gym called Rope's End they have some topos of the area, and will point you in the right direction. Roger's Pass is not to far for w/e trips, Squamish is about 4-1/2 hours over the duffy. What you schooling there?

    That's odd, coz I use LimeWire too, and I swear I am on a windoze machine Yeah LW's good. It's a Gnuttela network client(?). Friends "in the know" tell me Gnuttela is so last year, but I can't remember what's cool for this year.
  13. If ya go to Zombie - try the one that starts in the left corner and then goes l-r across the roof. Maybe there is more than one that fits that description, I'm thinking of one about a metre out from the back wall. Make sure you bring the lowe balls.
  14. Whoa! You're starting to sound like your roomie there a-gal!
  15. They wouldn't let me into the US last time I tried. I had a Driver's License, and an (expired) UK passport. He could have let me in if he had wanted to; I bet if I hadn't showed him the passport, he would have. My fault really- too lazy to get a new passport. If the dollar keeps getting stronger it just might be worth my while though...
  16. Whistler (Blackcomb actually ) KICKED ASS today, tuesday! Everything except the Blackcomb Glacier opened. Not busy, and knee deep + in the gem bowls. Owwwwwooooohhh!!!
  17. Andrew Maclean of BD tested a bunch of biners, dropped and found at the base of ElCap, etc... The batch came out the same as a regular batch. Three sigma blah blah blah - if you don't count the ones with obvious visible damage. I don't have a reference to the results, this is the best of my memory.
  18. And this is a problem how? I love looking at my maps.

  20. Most avy incidents occur during times of moderate or considerable hazard... It's a little more obvious that there is a danger when things are going off big. This should be in the *freshiezone*, eh?
  21. oops...
  22. Uh, there's one difference of note, the heels don't lock!
