Not me Pete. My account was hacked years ago and that person is messing with my account again. I don't delete my posts.
Edit: Many posts from years ago in this thread were written by the person(s) that have hacked my account here. Weak!

Maybe he read them and saw how crazy he sounded? I have a general rule that I try to check in with to keep myself on a decent path. If I have the thought that more than 2 people are a holes in one day that perhaps I am the one who is the a hole? Time to do a reality check and make sure that I am being a decent person when that happens.. It ain't always easy...

Hey Jaybro,
Only a "fully qualified" teacher could ask a question like that in this thread. Thank you, and thanks also to Richard for an excellent response.
I was contemplating giving up on this thread, but deep down I'm a WOS whore! Carry on !!

I gotta say Richard, thanks for that. I know it's hard because of how much vitriol your detractors bring, but when you take the high ground and only address your experiences, your writing is phenomenal. You don't need to lower yourself to adressing the negativity- we can all see it for what it is. That was a good read.

I'm inspired by your responses. Seriously, in just a few hours you guys have helped me "get over it" to a very significant extent by encouraging me to really get back in touch with what it's all about. This fighting-the-fight business has gotten increasingly old! I think I needed the catharsis of getting things summed up that way one time. Thank you. I mean it.

Madbolter, that's an excellent piece of writing. You convey a lot there. I was glued to every word. I'd love to hear something like this in Ammon's film. It touches the essence of climbing and cuts straight through to why people do this.
Thank you Jaybro, for posing the question.

A great post in every way, Richard. It calls to mind the greater part of the book, and reminds me of everything I liked about it.
Edit: Oh, by the way, see my PM if you get the chance!

ditto .....
Let me see....
Two people climb an aid route at their limit
Other people who never climbed it don't approve
People that haven't climbed it attack the FA party in a heinous way rather than discussing with the FA party directly
Sh*tloads of speculation and 2nd, 3rd etc hand accounts follow
2nd Ascent actually takes place
Tic toc tic toc.....

This is beyond shame!
Bwana spills his guts and you suck ups bow down and lap it.
"People that haven't climbed it attack the FA party in a heinous way rather than discussing with the FA party directly." This is total crap. This statement exemplifies the sheer ignorance of the general audience.
Meaty is one of the few people that was there at the time and witnessed the event. He now has to defend himself because he was falsely accused of shitting on the ropes, when in fact, he would be one of the heroes had he joined that party.
You people are f*#king clueless. These guys were an incompetent joke and continue to try and dupe the endless stream of clowns who blindly heap praise upon them.
Oh, and Steve says thanks for answering IQ #1.
That you were heckled afterwards throughout CA had everything to do with your bogus self-promotion. Of course, you would retreat to the Quarry, aka, the Crucible of Greatness. And the Secret Bathook Cave hidden deep inside Wawona Dome was surely a source of comfort to you.
Since you've finally decided to open up for us here at ten till midnight, would you care explaining what you meant when you said that you 'learned about dimpling on the Sea' after you had obviously already mastered that (though this is still controversial)?
And we really have to know since this question's been hanging for a long time....knowing what you thought that you didn't know then now, would you have done anything differently?

This is CLASSIC:
Summary:
Gunkie ask's a question, 6 years is gets answered.
We have Mr/Mrs Weak Sauce(Steve/Mimi) talk'n sh#t the entire time about a route that either one of them has never climbed.
Mr. Weak Sauce blows his load in her mouth and she gobbles is up as the scripture. And he claims to have "NEVER ENHANCED" anything on the rock. Mrs. Weak Sauce is riding his coat tails and he's living in the past like Uncle Rico. Dreaming of being a millionaire with a hot tub and hot chicks.
Mrs. Weak Sauce continues to attack others who have "been there" and those who have knott. Yet the only climbing she's probably been capable of doing is up and down a bunk bed.
We have the Canadian ASSassin who stepped down yet is still trying to maintain his role in this motion picture documentary.
There are a few sideshows, and now Werner and Deucy are in the mix. Accusations flying left and right.
PO wall was contrived, yet nobody cared about "bird" carving the rock..... why? he was the man.
Mr/Mrs Weak Sauce have yet to do the route and will NEVER do the route so it's funny as hell to listen to the slander. Classic.
I'm hoping this thread goes beyond the "death to republican's" thread. It's high-larious.
Who gives a sh#t to sh#t on the ropes. That's funny too. It's funny no one until 2011 repeated the route. Yet..... according to the gospel of Weak Sauce the line is "light duty".
This is a stellar mini-series in progress "As the pecker turns"...... or was it RURPS?
Uncle Rico Weak Sauce, regardless if the coach put you in during the 4th quarter you still would have never gone "pro".
Get over your self righteous candy ass. You think you wrote the gospel of climbing with your attitude. We all need to bow down to Weak Sauce.
And mimi, I seem to have dropped some gear, could you be so kind as to pick it up...... It's right BLOW ME!!!
