Seems like a good plan.

I think the main reason that is hasn't been climbed to date is because no "Colorado Hardman" has yet to set aside the time to come out here for a day or two and tick it.

Sounds brutal.

I rip the scarp metal in half with my bare hands over a thousand times while I forge my cam lobes.

Please do not describe your supply chain. I make them from Chinese scrap metal. Side Note: I have a friend who works for Cargill. They mix grains that come in pallet-sized cardboard boxes and giant polyethylene bags. Because Cargill is a green company, just ask them, they recycle the cardboard and bags. Where does it end up? They sell it to China, where it is burned to make electricity. Have a nice day...

I only use cams I make myself.

So, I worked my triceps to muscular failure almost a week ago. Felt fine during the work out, but the next day, one of my arms started to hurt above the elbow. Eventually, both arms got to the point where I couldn't bring my hands to my mouth without pain. OK, pretty intense workout, but over the course of the week, its been deep, kicked in the balls soreness, feels like my humeri (pl?) are rotting, with general improvement in flexibility, but almost constant soreness. It seems to have worked itself into my pectorals as well. If I do a big "cat strecth", my arms feel like they are made of lead, my chest tingles, my hands feel like they may go numb, and I feel like barfing from whatever I did to my triceps. Did I give myself compartment syndrome? Am I too strong for my muscles?

JayB: You obviously lack the racism required to understand that no Chinaman could ever build anything as good or better than a red-blooded American. Look at their "Wall", for example. The thing's falling to pieces. Their fake soldiers are so crappy they had to bury them. They're even going to get sloppy seconds on the Moon within five years.

Maybe China will outsource its environmental cleanup to the US.

Dwayner's too busy working to climb The Nose:

Pretty easy to get lost when you're randomly walking around in the woods while staring at the ground. I'm amazed she lived, despite not having either a cell phone or a hot Tauntaun abdomen.

I'll bet you $250 that he's not smart enough to stay home and pay $50 instead of going to court and paying $250. Live and learn...

They did build a Stonehenge-style sacrificial alter at Cascade Pass. Perhaps we can soon sacrifice virgins and albino sheep at all passes in the NCNP?

I thinks NOLSe is pissed he doesn't have any pics of extremo mountain gnar to sell to anyone, just his "Muscle Up" self-portrait. The additional $200 dollars barely covers the taxpayer expense you created by contesting a "no-win" fine. Lesson learned.

Fuck censored NIN. "Blood Rave" by The Crystal Method has a great baseline, but isn't rock or roll. "Ratamahatta" by Sepultura is pretty kickin' Pig Destroyer's "Piss Angel" might be a good choice,way over the top, and if she goes into the ring/cage second, it would scare the shit out of her opponent. Of course, if I was fighting, I'd pick "Angel of Death". Of course.

My understanding is that barometric pressure is not only a function of altitude, but also latitude. The graph on page 3116 of his second article relates barometric pressure with altitude alone. "Paleoalpinism"?? Kind of a stretch, but someone funded it, I guess.

I hear they're running in the red.

I take my pedals off and run while on my bike. It's way radder than cyclolame.

Definitely the burliest alpine climbing happening in the lower 48. Great job to everyone!!

Awesome! A new "Mom" joke! Just what the world was missing! Got those forces calculated yet?

I bet you're glad you weren't lead climbing back then. BTW: How do you wipe yourself these days? Rag on a stick? If you have a second, what's the force on the rag at the instant you wipe?

My favorite part is how you've so far failed to mention "kinetic energy" or "impulse" in your carefully thought out dissertation, and seem to not understand how a stress/strain curve describes the behavior of a dynamic system in tension under a fixed load. Perhaps you'd care to describe how the stress/strain curve would change under a diminished load, or can tell me the difference between yield and ultimate strength. And I'm DYING to read how you'd calculate the "force" acting upon a falling six year old lead climber, maybe a younger you, at 55kg.

You are right. Nothing happens "instanty". It takes "thousanths" of a second. Thank you for pointing out how fucking stupid you are. Your knowledge of basic physics resembles that of the ancient Greeks, Aristotle. Please tell me that you're not an engineer or make anything that peoples lives are dependent on.

Me no speak retard, maybe that's why I can't understand you. The rope will stretch instantly, at different rates, for both climbers, who would be traveling at the same speed. And wood is not made of "Earth" and "Fire", Aristotle.

After not carefully reading or re-reading your post, I still think you're retarded. They would both be going the same speed when the rope began to stretch. The rate of rope stretch would be different. That is how I "repond", Aristotle.
