It's always been just a matter of time and we've known it; Sunni or later the Shia's gonna hit the fan. God provided another burning Bush to get our attention.

I submitted your question to syndicated columnist Mann Glanders so that we might get some professional commentary on this. Here's the response: Dear Mr. "wave his pendulous belly for all to see" Phil, Jonmf76 lives in his own little subjective world where he is the authority on all things "mountain", "freeze-dried", and "Gore-Tex". He hates climbers. They have the audacious temerity to suggest that his perception that his gigantic Oz-like head, from which all things worthy of consideration flow and sweet-scented flowers float like bubbles borne on a breeze, where he is the center of a sweet honey in the rock universe, is actually his self-delusional rendering of what the climbers see: he wears a rectum balaclava pulled down to his neck. Don't curse him; thank the mountain gods for providing the entertainment.

I was country when country wasn't cool

I get into spray if my next urination is of sufficient time after 8D

I bet her Norelco doesn't care

unless he's a drywall-taper

Fear Of Terrible Heights

did he install a grease zirc on the taipipe?

There's almost three hundred people on the board right now

good one

I wish, more like, time to get home and help change diapers. I'm sure changing diapers is about 5.11c/d parents and climbers all deal with dirty cracks

do you have a gigantic pillah? keep keepin' on, dude. I'm hoping we can meet up again at Bluff Lake, fly in, and climb somethin'.

heh heh, good one

If you simply reflected for a moment, you might see that your title for this thread combined with your questioning "whether the weather conditions were truly as severe...", along with your numerous other questions, you might understand that it readily appears these statements are in conflict with:

Finally, my kind of poster. Jon, you and I should get together and create a new board without all the fluff. Serious posts only, and climbing resumes required to separate the men from the boys.

Never thought I'd be writing this, but, let's keep the spray out of this thread. I want this thread to stay here in hopes the relations and loved ones of the stranded climbers can see that any doubts as to the effectiveness and thoroughness of the rescue efforts raised by this n00b are baseless and without foundation.

and, seemingly, the last to know

post #77 on that blog. Thanks, Oly, I got a chuckle from that one.

Well, he does list his occupation as Guide in his profile. what a presumptuous, pitiful poseur

I believe I am providing a valuable "thoughtfulness", apparently beyond your comprehension, by showing, in concert with others here, the lack of validity and authority in your question of competence of the rescuers. I'm sure this knowledge is valuable, particularly to the stranded climbers relations and loved ones, and so, indirectly to the stranded climbers themselves. This is much more constructive than your doubtful speculations.

Oh, no! another member who ask questions without an answer!

thanks, by the contradiction in this post, combined with your title for this thread, you've clearly shown to all your lack of clarity.

Also, your arrogance is not above unnecessarily creating doubt in the minds of loved ones that everything and all is being done by qualified persons to rescue these guys. nice job

he can't hear anyone but himself

Thanks, Griz. This idiot has been bothering me with his self-professed knowledge, evidenced lack of mountain wisdom, and peurile ponderance. jonmofo, you've obviously got the skills and a line on this situation that has baffled evreyone else. You'd better get up there now.
