Thanks Wayne! Glad to hear you pulled this together. Hopefully I'll be able to make it.

Interesting theory, Dumb, but interesting. Where do you find this crap, really? Women are biologically programmed to protect offspring, which involves staying alive. Men are biologically programmed to spread the seed and procreate. Perhaps there is something about this that makes more men climb that women? We find lots of hot chicks to knock up in the mountains?

1/4 of people in Oregon do not identify as white. 1/4 of the people in Washington do not identify as white. I see it as a class problem. You need money and time to get interested in the outdoors as much everyone around here wants to glorify the dirtbag lifestyle. Cycles of poverty, lack of education and access to resource have a disproportionate impact on people of color, which is why climbing is predominantly a white sport.

Come on Joseph, let's not lump UFOs in the same boat as Bigfoot and Nessie. Didn't you see Hitchhiker's Guide? Just pick a probability to deal with the pesky time space continuum.

If Bigfoot smokes crack in the woods and noone hears the whoosh of the torch did it really happen?

We use Vonage at home - $14.99/month for 500 minutes anywhere in the US. We love it. Cheap - tons of free features. Reliable. I'd say the sound quality is sometimes worse, and it obviously relies on your IP access, but overall its been super cheap and reliable. Plus I fucking hate Quest, and ditched them all together for a cable DSL.

He's squeezing my hand pretty hard ... ow ... OWWW!
