All he tells me is how to climb a crack I already know how to climb. That's why he's coach. Uh he told me a story about how he impressed his Dad by throwing a beer bottle in the air and then throwing another beer bottle at the first beer bottle and breaking it. But now I've repeated his story, oh oh. [laf][laf]

No shit --- still there eh? Last time I ran into him at the UW wall he was regaling some climber visiting from South Africa with tales of the connections between Steve Largent, the CIA, and the Cali Cartel or something.

Let's face it: the guy is a genius! I've climbed with the guy, and the rumors that he doesn't know where Index is just aren't true. He'll talk your ear off, but I think he's a genuinely nice guy, and very entertaining (if you're driving back from Leavenworth, you won't need a radio in the car).

And by the way? Is Caveman a punk rock hero? Has Caveman climbed the Nose in a day or written lots of cool instructional books? Could Caveman do an "El Cap Day" at the rock? Have Henry, Largo or Coach posted more than 3000 times to this site? I think not. You guys are way off.

But you've got to admit that the guy is both articulate and entertaining. You might want to spend more time around him. [big Drink][big Drink][big Drink][big Drink][Moon]

I wasn't making something up to slight the guy - that conversation really happened. For an hour. He didn't seem like a bad guy at all - just very eccentric. I think that even his closest friends would admit that.
