I'd just like to report that I nobly refrained yesterday from starting a "Six Months Before the Start of the 2009 Yosemite FaceLift" thread, thus saving thread clutter, bandwidth, hissy fits, vexation on the part of those who may be less public spirited, and any need to later delete it. It seemed very important that I report this non-event to the wonderful wacky world of SuperTopia.

It is, of course, six months less one day to the official start of the 2009 FaceLift, on September 23rd. As in the last few years, a very good time will be had by all, many SuperTopians will attend, and much do-gooder stuff will be done. In the time between now and when this thread is deleted, you can read about the 2008 FaceLift at http://www.yosemiteclimbing.org/category/events/facelift/facelift-2008, plus there are quite a lot of threads and photos about it which can be found on SuperTopo.

Why not post it? It's climbing related, many people from here go there. It let's others co-organize.

I can find no reason to not post one. But that's just me.

Good point, blue. If he doesn't post it, how are people going to know that it's six months until the next Facelift, so that they can plan to be there on Sept 23 and following? Mighty Hiker obviously didn't think this thing through very carefully.

I was just trying to get in on the recent spate of thread non-deletions, or non-thread deletions, or deleted non-threads, or whatever it's all about. As usual with such trends, I'm probably behind the curve.

Plus I'm hoping to avoid having my eye sockets gouged out.

Thanks - a non-facelift thread was just the thing to not get my hopes up for a point not six months in the future.

NOT!

I heard you guys got kicked out of the Valley and got relocated to Crane Flat or somewhere up there for the campsite?

Seems almost a conspiracy when most of the cleaning up is in the valley.
Is it 4 million+ visitors a year now? And the Early morning garbage trucks run 7 days a week just to keep up?

/Maybe need to add a Spring Face lift to?

Werner - you been talking with Ken?

He was talking about banishing us to the hinterlands so we don't offend the Wells Fargo folks like last year.

Lord knows we can't upset bankers.
