Where does the name "Sobo" come from?

Yes....if the conservatives have anything to say about it.

Why? What is the logic behind this? Jim already has a climb he named at Dreamland called Freak Freely. That’s funny Climb at your own risk. I do believe Tim’s book has a warning of the danger area in the beginning of his book. Tim is giving respect to Jim by doing a small write up on him. I have read it and it is awesome. The NW climbing scene would be a different place had it not been for Jim. Jim…..you are the man. Thank you for 15 years of mentorship!

http://www.michaelmoore.com/words/mike-friends-blog/lets-pass-some-laws Welcome back to our nation's capital for your one final session of the 111th Congress. Come January, the Republicans will take over the House while the Democrats will retain control of the Senate. But Dems -- here's something I don't understand: Why do you look all sullen and depressed? Clearly you're not aware of one very important fact: YOU ARE STILL COMPLETELY, TOTALLY, LEGALLY IN CHARGE! When (and if, mostly if) you wake up to the reality that you can do whatever you want for the next seven weeks, you will realize that you have two clear options: 1. You can continue your "Sit Quietly and Hope No One Hits Me" strategy and thus lay the groundwork for an even bigger ass-kicking two years from now; Or... 2. You can actually use the power you hold for the next seven weeks and have the Senate pass the legislation that the House has already passed! Wake up, Democrats! You are in an awesome position right now. The House of Representatives, in this current session of Congress, has already passed an astounding 420 bills since January of 2009 -- 420 bills that are just sitting there on the Senate leader's desk. The Senate has refused to take up these House bills because they've been afraid of a Republican filibuster. Well, Dems, here's the truth: You can pass all of these bills and turn them into law RIGHT NOW, TODAY, by simply calling for a majority vote of 50 Senators (plus Vice President/President of the Senate Joe Biden). Yes, you will need to change the filibuster rules. So do it. You have the votes! And yes, the Republicans will scream bloody murder -- so let them! Make them. Let America see them in all their hateful, spiteful ways -- it will act as a beautiful coming attraction trailer for all the world to see. Let all of America watch the Republicans as they try to derail democracy by holding up a bunch of bills that nearly every American I know would want to see as the law of the land. Many of these bills are so safe, so innocuous, I have a hard time understanding what the heck the problem was in the first place. Like the bill that's already passed the House to name a post office after Jimmy Stewart. I know, I know, the idea of a post office named after Jimmy Stewart is really, really, incredibly controversial and divisive and somebody on the other side of the aisle might yell at you. Be brave, Democrats! There's a whole slew of these bills the House has passed. Some are no-brainers; others are absolutely necessary. You can pass them in the next seven weeks. And because you Dems seem to have a problem with properly naming your bills and communicating effectively with the average American, I have helpfully renamed them for you so they sound like what they actually are -- things people would really want. Here's a partial list of the bills the House has already passed and are now just in need of approval by the U.S. Senate: • The "Give Mom a Raise Act," officially known as the "Paycheck Fairness Act," which addresses pay gaps between men and women. Now, who out there still believes women should be paid less than men? I REALLY want to see Republicans try to stop this one. • The "Don't Amputate Our Feet Act," aka the "Eliminating Disparities in Diabetes Prevention Access and Care Act of 2009." Which Republican will stand to speak out in favor of diabetes? • The "Pay Up, BP Act," aka the "Audit the BP Fund Act," which makes sure BP is paying people hurt by the Gulf oil spill as quickly as possible -- and makes BP pay the cost of keeping track of where the money’s going. • The "Stop Foreigners From Hitting Grandma Act," aka the "Elder Abuse Victims Act." This doesn't really have anything to do with foreigners, but our fellow Americans seem to automatically dislike people from other countries, so this should help just in case the Republicans think an "elders abuse victims act" doesn't sound patriotic enough. • The "Let's Try Not to Destroy Planet Earth Act" (aka Cap and Trade, a lousy half-way measure to begin with, but about the best you can expect from you Democrats these days). • The "National Bombing Prevention Act" (it's actually already called that, which is hard to improve on). And while those of you in the Senate are taking care of all that, the House can come up with a better version of Michelle Obama’s “Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act” to improve child nutrition. The Senate has already passed this bill. (The House should fix it so that it isn't paid for by cutting food stamps to poor people. Yes, you, a Democratic Senate, did that.) Then there are also things that neither the House or Senate has dealt with. These would take more work during the next two months, but that's what highly-caffeinated "energy" drinks are for. Jenni Suri of Ligonier, Indiana, has set up a petition with a good list, which anyone can sign here to tell the Congressional leadership to get started. Among the "to do" items on the list: • Extend emergency unemployment benefits • Repeal Don't Ask, Don't Tell • Pass the DREAM Act (to provide young immigrants with a path to citizenship) • Pass the Disclose Act to force corporations to say what politicians they're giving money to • Pass the Employee Free Choice Act, so we can have unions again in the U.S. • Pass Rep. Donna Edwards' constitutional amendment that -- in the wake of the Citizens United decision -- would give Congress the power to regulate corporate spending on elections So what do you say, Democrats? What's the worst that could happen -- you'd lose an election? You already did that! C'mon, here's your one last gutsy chance to show us that you're made of something other than wish and wash. Yours, Michael Moore P.S. Be sure to let the Democrats in Congress know right now you expect action from them during this next month. You can call your Senators and Representative at (202) 224-3121 or find their direct number and email at Congress.org.

I just emailed Tim Olson and asked him to name the crag "Farside".

WTF? I'm not pinks friend...only kevbone will fill that special role for pink... Not that it matters...but Pink is twice the climber (in terms of having the most fun) than Rumr will ever be.....not that is matters.

Right. What ever happened to Seahawks?

Coldfinger.....are you telling us that you would not "jerk off"? Lets be honest shall we.......

Where is his/her belayer?

Folks who are, "smart," don't make statements like this. Agreed.

So were do we stand? If we name it Drop Zone a lot of people will be pissed. If we name it Far Side a lot of people will be pissed. Does Jim's vote count for more than anyone elses?

Clearly this will not be decided here on cc.com. This was a troll boys....plain and simple and you all have been pwned. Tim's book has a deadline coming VERY SOON. A name will have to be decided on. Not really sure how or who will make the call. I suppose either way is fine with me. Personally, I will never call it or refer to it as Farside. It will always be The Drop Zone. Ironically, the first time I ever heard of DZ was standing at the base of the Ozone. Jim looked at me and said "have you checked out the Drop Zone yet".....its the hush hush crag about 500 feet east of here"? This was in early 2007. For the next year and a half he referred to it as The Drop Zone to me and everyone around us. Sometime in late 2008 he started calling it Farside. This was about the time when a new wave of developers and climbers started going there more often. Some of the new developers only heard it called Farside. So I can see how calling it by its original name would be hard for them. To me having an Ozone and a Drop Zone next to each other makes sense. It sounds right. To me. Is there a compromise that can be reached?

Right back at ya Bill.

It already had a name. Then Jim changed it. What gives him the right? What gives any of us the right? Honestly, I do like the idea of calling it Drop Zone/ Farside in Tim's new book. That way everyone gets a piece of the action. Bill. Jim and I have spoken on this issue a couple of times. I know where he stands. I just happen to disagree. OMG....did I just say out loud that I disagree with Jim.....am I going to burn in hell now?

Fardrop.....dropside?

Drop Zone/Farside it is I guess.
