I posted incorrectly, I meant to say Factor 2. I may still be wrong, but a 10mm rope on a fixed anchor with so little rope out...hell, I don't know.

Regarding powerplant sell-back? Most of the time alternative energy is chosen due to expense in hooking up common utilities, and sell-back becomes a non-issue.

Solar is better if you have good exposure. Wind-generation requires maintenance, and if you are going to travel at all, there are systemic maintenance issues that are higher time-consumers than solar. Basically, you can't just shut the wind power down. A major consideration is maximum wind forces in your area.Especially in the winter, when they are strongest, and you are most likely to be away.

Exactly what I thought.

35 feet out an overhang, 20 foot fall on fixed anchor. Enough said? Toes Of The Fisherman

What was everyone thinking about today in the sun? 1. Spring in Skaha/Smith 2. Sunny Mornings 3. Longer Evenings 4. ReAwakening

I think it is a bad idea, even if it was only "used once". I took a factor four fall solo-aiding on a new rope at Smith once. After, it looked fine. Someone stole it out of my van a few days later, removing the quandry of "To use or not to use?". Thoughts?

and one for DRUID: colossal calamari! :

This is a cool picture: Were these established problems?

You can still get away with it, just selectively

SCARRY?

That trident might fit handily into thou nether regions.

is a fucking LIBERAL POSER pretending to be a conservative!!! He was recently spotted with his HIPPY GIRLFRIEND coming out of the Blue Moon! Driving off in her early-model Mazda hatchback, sources spotted a MAGTG (Mothers Against Gun-Totin' Gapers) bumpersticker, which explains a lot. Also, furtive and fearful glances belied his sturdy, aggresive on-line demeanor, making the source question HRoark's calling further... Go Straight to HELL, Weak-kneed gun-hater!

Hey, wasn't there a banned called sumpin like that? Kamper Banned Veethoven?

Good link, Toast. Thanks

DocuShredders puts their new model to the extreme test!!

Man, I am really thinking about skiing again with the new shaped skis. It's been 10 years since I skied, and I skied for 15 years, but WOW! Ski's have changed SO MUCH, especially with the AT on the shaped.
