Most local Yosemite climbers preferred to talk about climbing rather than actually climb. They spent their days telling stories, moving from the cafeteria to the deli to the Mountain Room Bar as they debated style, routes and climbers. They knew everything and could climb anywhere... but I soon found out the biggest talkers rarely climbed.

Interesting timing.
It's been 15 years but it's note worthy now that Singer is doing speaking engagements about it.
Tommy's been sprayed all over the media a few months ago.
