You have a few FAs somewhere?
One doesn't have to be young to be young. I have plenty of 'young' friends whose lives are boring as sh#t IMO. Same thing all over. Work mon-fri, bars/clubs fri/sat, same old air head chicks, same ones puke in bathrooms, same ones getting 'in trouble.' May appear fun to some I guess, but to me it seems boring. So don't be like that survival, do our big walls, go squirrel hunting or whatever else you do to stay young...

Fukkin' AAAA Vitaliy, I'm trying to fight the good fight.
Like many silverbacks on here, most of the people that started climbing at the same time I did are long gone from the game.
I can't climb like BITD, but I still pull down reasonably hard and still have ambitions for large/semi-large stuff.
Yes, I have FA's, but no big wall FA's in Yosemite. I've done some early repeats of big things, but I'm not a rock star.

Does this 'silverback' term carry a positive or a negative meaning? If I use the 's' word around here will I be trolled by other 'silverbacks?' Or do I need to get to know one well first, and than it would be ok for me to use it?

Depends on if you're pitching or catching of course.

U guys should catch up with the internetz and get facebewks, so instead of using the forum, we could actually use the 'chat' option. Not sure if FB will upload those black and white photos many of you post around here, but another reason to buy a digital camera! : )
