Greek cuisine is delicious. They should leverage that.

You sound like your mom.

You're all douche nozzles.

First of all, 1 in 20 is 5%, not 30%. Also, do cams really need to be "set?" That sounds weird. Sure, I'll tug on a cam sometimes to make sure the placement is good, but I don't really think it's getting "set," nor do I think that the simple act of tugging on it makes the placement more secure. Why would it?

Sounds epic. I once left a neutrino on girth pillar.

Yr mom can only talk in monosyllables once I'm done with her!!!

I'm sexually dangerous.

This is some quality spray right here. I FUCKED ALL YOUR MOTHERS!

Dr. Dre!

Hey, what's brown and rhymes with Snoop?

BALLS

Liburuls, thats who! TAKE AWAY THEIR POSTERS AND LOCK 'EM UP!!! MORANS!

To be fair, Germans aren't really happy about anything. Except maybe clucking.

Whatevs, I make Eastwood look like a total dude.

Why do you hate America? LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT!!!!

so what's the process? A single prosecutor decides someone is still a risk, and tells the judge, and a single judge decides to incarcerate him indefinitely? WTF?

So, what do you guys think about the recent SCOTUS ruling that sex offenders can be held indefinitely, even after their prison sentences are complete? This sounds pretty fucked up to me. Clear and convincing evidence? Convincing to who? Another jury? Do they even find out for how long they will be indefinitely held for? WTF? Due process????

you guys are too easy.

WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU GUYS???? You should all be GRATEFUL for the work they are doing for us. WE OWE THEM!!! They're probably watching this site and I hope they don't start refusing to clear the highway just because of a few bad apples

It's not a penalty. Nobody is saying they did anything illegal. It's an increase in liability caps. That's not the same as saying that something you did is now retroactively illegal. That's a boondogle, this isn't quite the same thing. Taxes have been retroactively changed, for example. In addition, it seems most people I've read agree that this legislation is not likely to face any serious ex post facto constitutional claims as it is a change to existing legislation, and affects liability limits for ANY oil company (in other words, not just a punishment for BP). Either way, it seems like a bit of hyperbole to say that retroactively increasing liability caps is the same thing as retroactively making a legal activity illegal. Not really quite the same animal, imo.

So, let's remove your entire hypothetical situation which seems to be the premise of your argument. What are you left with? Do you think what happened was wrong? Do you think it reflects poorly on the conservative movement, in general? Do you wish it wouldn't have happened?

And that your HYPOTHETICAL argument proves that any liberal's complaint of this issue is therefore hypocritical? NICE!

So, basically, you're saying that the real-life vandalism by a couple of conservative douchebags is made defensible by your hypothetical theory that libs would have done the same thing?

I have the full story, but will only discuss the actual accident because it has value for other climbers. Climber was on p2 of Roger's Corner. He had two apparently good pieces in the broken section right above the p2 belay. He was high in the corner, not far from the exit move with 2 microcams in the steep portion of the corner. He peeled off and came tight on the top microcam which slowed him down, but ripped out. The next micro ripped also, he impacted the slab, and continued down until his belayer caught him on his second piece. Both micros were BD C3s (green and yellow). Both showed extensive damage on 2 opposing lobes, but the 3rd lobe looked almost new. Thanks. I was wondering about that. He sounds lucky. The p2 belay isn't that far off the ground; it must have been a close one. I hope he makes a full recovery.
