Oh, come on, Ray. I started writing TRs and posting them online because I enjoy other peoples' websites so much. It's not all about chestbeating. Besides, your weekly photo thread isn't much different.
Ehmmic, your first quote, the one quoting me, was in response to a flippant comment that I made totally in jest. I was in no way serious. Climbing something in a day is simply a way to make a route harder, so it's more of a challenge. It isn't always to inflate egos. Wait, maybe ALL climbing is done to inflate our egos.
I like reading TRs, as it gives me something to do when I can't climb. So, everybody, write more TRs!
