If you want a pointed end get out the hacksaw & file. Even if you have the tools (hacksaw, file & drillbit), if you have to pay for the Al stock it's cheaper to buy pickets unless you are making a bunch (and who needs a bunch of pickets)

Since when is a gunowning hunter a Hard Left? That's just Foxnews speaking PP. People (left and right) vote based on feelings & perceptions, not facts. The political "debates" on this site well illustrate that (Kerry's outlined plans have a tab of $2 trillion, W's are $3 trillion)

Will build destination ski resort for food

I have a pair. Good training for nordic skiing and a decent workout. Much better at skate skiing than classic, but you need a fairly wide lane that's low traffic and well paved (the short wheels don't handle bumps well). I don't use mine much anymore. New you can buy them from Reliable Racing or other such places, they aren't worth the $$ (~$300 w/bindings) unless you are a hardcore Nordic dude. Used you can find them for <$100 on rec.nordic or the like (which I did). Make sure you get a pair of road pole ends for your nordic poles as well - pavement eats the tips.

The muir doesn't have women/girls in skin tight race suits

Cough. Cough. You may have heard of the Palmer Snowfield. Where you can ski to your little hearts content. And ride those things known as lifts if your lazy.

You headed at peak season (Nov-Jan?) or some other time? From all I've heard the road to Fitzroy takes a 1/2 day - and there aren't many flights to El Chalten.

On a related note, the Bradt Travel Guide company is now releasing a GuideBook to Iraq

They do (at least on PBS) It caused quite a stink last election - people didn't like adds interrupting Morning Edition

The greatest rise has been in Alcohol related violence - bar fights, post bar fights. I don't think guns would reduce this (at least not in the short term).

Except in LA

The Nalge company, makers of Nalgene, got it's start making lab equipment chemistry for Chemistry/Biology. The Outdoor market was a crossover. They handle alcohol quite well. If your looking for Sigg bottles Sierratradingpost.com always has them always, discounted.

Repeatedly copying something on a copier wouldn't produce the distortion they refer. Copiers work linerally - both scan and print portions, so the distortion should be regular along some axis (i.e x, y or some combo) Distortion of random portions of the document would more likely be from an imaging system like microfiche.

"Full Disclosure" is merely another loophole for groups to slip through. As an example I give Dave's company $1 million on the condition he use it to buy advertising in the Presidential Campaign. Since it's now Dave's money, he's disclosed as the purchaser. Not exactly right to my mind.

Get him an HP - RPN is the way of the engineer!

And only really pretenious native english speakers call them by the non-Anglicized name. Same with Milano, Roma, etc.

Central NY is still tops in my mind Chili - Chi lie Vienna - VIE en a Is Col pronounced like cole?

"Mountains of the Mind" by Robert Macfarlane. It's a thesis turned into a book by someone who's too scared to climb anymore

I just fondled the #4 & #3 Nice Cams!

FWIW the Climbing mag (or was it R & I) review said it leaked - like .5" of water in the bottom of the tent leaked.

Only a Californian could describe October as "bitter cold". It's likely to be 30's/40's/50's and sunny during the day. The trail is wide and easy, except for the elevation. I'm not sure if the Coyote flat route would give you any benefit. Car to car could be turned to Hut to hut when/if The Palisade Glacier Mountain Hut ever opens.
