LOL!

Are you sure you're weren't in WalMart? I have an older Gamma MX, they are pretty sweet. In fact, some kid in skinny jeans and carefully messy hair asked me where I got it the other day. When I wear it out, I'll get another. The fit is pretty nice, and agree with Dane, it isn't lightweight.

I know there isn't , and I agree the name shouldn't change. of course people put names on mountains, and they don't always stick (eg Denali vs. McKinley)

Renaming Gravina Island Bridge to Steven's Bridge would have been more appropriate

Its just good clean Darwianian process, discarding the chaff.

Yeah, foreign countries should have their vote too you whiney bitch!

Oh! Lets discuss the insurance industry (racket) as a whole! You pay a company to protect your assets and then they use the money you pay them to hire lawyers and detectives to figure out how to get out of paying you when you really need it! Deductibles are carefully set to average theft $ rates, for example, so you never use the insurance (unless you want to commit fraud). Of course you can pay more for a lower deductible! This is all optional of course, except for the mandatory insurances. Not that it would run better as a state institution. Just bitching about the racket.

The homeowner should be sued for setting the neighbors field on fire. But don't worry, I'm sure they have insurance!

REPOST! They were just making the cliff safe so it could be grid bolted by sport climbers.

RIP Dallas I met him (as I'm sure more than one of you did) up at Mt Erie.

Time passes and you must move on, Half the distance takes you twice as long So you keep on singing for the sake of the song bill if you quit climbing it would be hard to justify buying anymore gear.

omg flying saucers any way you look at this, hard to see an upside. ICBM launch officers seeing UFOs?

http://www.mikeandkey.org/links.htm#clubs_northwest warning: this is extreme geek territory. not that there is anything wrong with that. 2m is 2 meter wavelength. No link to info on the accident. It was when I was working for Camp Parsons. The Camp Director came along with us. We warned the boys on the way out (and him) about the rocks creating cavities, but he didn't get the message and got too close to the rocks and fell through...breaking his leg. I ran down to the rangers and they called out and hit Victoria.

Just an edit to " there was no sign of the other two, who are still missing and presumed dead." Both bodies were recovered by PMR in late August. That rings a bell. This is for the 2009 accident, right? Let me know and we'll correct it (one advantage of web-based publishing). Thanks. http://www.katu.com/news/local/101605443.html
