Both men have been enigmas and heroes to me, I would love to read their life stories besides the short stories i've read over the years.
Anyone else feel this way?

sort of like the stonemaster book. i think either of these guys would generate interest for a small but intense readership. especially yabo. even young pad people in their teens and early 20's have heard of him.

A Yabo book would be nice. There is a series of books coming out of Poland (in Polish, duh) that will commemorate some of our fallen greats. The first book is about Alex Lowe, Todd Skinner and Dan Osman.
I have a great Yabo shirt I need to get out into the SuperTopo eye... Maybe this weekend.
