Part of the idea on the wide boulevards was also that an opponent could not quickly come into the city & block off access (w/o a whole lot of materiel and stealth). DC was designed by Pierre L'Enfant(the diagonals) and Thomas Jefferson (the grid).

A Ford F-350 with mudslingers or similar makes this picture. Stickers of famous Nascar numbers on the back and a mirror-polished rear differential are brownie points. Don't forget Calvin pissing on the Chevy logo for double extra bonus points!

It doesn't need to even be that complicated, as: "The ban could take effect as early as Jan. 1, after a standard review by the state Office of Administrative Law to make sure it adheres to state regulations." Now the OAL is supposed to be independant, but I wouldn't be surprised if they could find the regulation faulty with a little pointing to the right regulation.

quote: Originally posted by freeclimb9: The California election sure is depressing, too. I've read it described as "the evil of two lessers": Davis and Simons. It's worse than the lesser of two evils - and there's not even a quasi-reasonable third party canidate available.

Given the harassment the Giant Black Sea Bass are getting down there from moron spearo's (as a s a species recovering from the brink they're illegal to take - and are more likely to be mistaken for a boulder than fish) I can't with a straight face say people are particularly conservation minded in SoCal. That said this is the stupidest fucking thing I've ever heard of. FOREVER?!

quote: Originally posted by Swedish Chef: Is the "Medicine for Mountaineering and other wilderness..." from the Mountaineers any good? (I know that there are quite mixed feelings for the Mounties - an organisation which I know absolutely nothing about. I can only say that "Extreme Alpinism" and Freedom of the Hills are damn good books in my opinion). Medicine for Moutaineering is a very good introductory wilderness medicine text - if your looking for more information than it provides, it's best to take a class. As for the Mountaineers, the books division is seperate from the bulk of the club - it's not the same beast & is probably the biggest US publisher of climbing books. Carl
