Yeah, I guess it is hyperbolic, but the fall of the wall was a drunk fest.

So the Dawn wall history fits right in.

That pitch should be called ' Beyond Bachar / Yerian ' or something like that.

i wasnt hating, but people died for others freedom so the wall would eventually fall. it is an insult to them if people compare inspiring, but ultimately peanuts events to the fall of the wall.

some people here have probably lightened up to the point where nothing substantial remains...

nopantsben - the inspiration that drives worthy deeds is as important as the deed itself, so in some sense the Dawn Wall free could be the most important thing in history, depending on who gets inspired, by example, to try the next "impossible" thing. Limited yourself to end results is to miss the nuances of the process. Nothing is stand-alone.

Hey Tom,

Totally amazing happenings in the valley. Glad you are there to capture it all for those of us who cannot be there in person. Enjoy.

Cheers,
