I like your style, Pat - you just 'float' up there.

Thanks, Lisa. I only let gravity affect me
when I want it to (which has been the entire
second half of my life).

Hey Pat, watched your movie tonight. I like the way you belay your daughter,, one hand ,good enough,,,
Really good stuff, you can see how strong Gill was, his arms were like a preying mantis lifting him to the next hold. The pull up power he had is incredible, you can see him levering his way up these route's.
The music and interviews are also very cool.
Amazing stuff,,, thanks

Yet everyone who has seen the film has been glad
they learned about it.

Since the late 1960's, John Gill has remained my dear
friend and the most inspirational climber I have known.
When I made the Disciples of Gill, I realized how much
there was to say about John and how many people had
strong sentiments they wanted to share. Thus I went right
ahead with the second film, which is nearing completion.
Any contributions would be most welcome, as I battle
various health problems that seem to want to slow me
down at every turn. Many thanks to those of you who have
had faith in me...
Pat

This is like a good kind of fishing. I cast in my line, and
someone is happy to get the dvd. We both win.
But I have to keep letting people know.

Thanks, dm. That's what I admire, the kind of spirit
where one spends his last nickle on some climbing dvd...
You have your heart in the right place...

Did you mean Jim? Are you thinking of some other climber than
John Gill? I suppose if he's one of your inspirations
you wouldn't get the name wrong. But
indeed there are some other Gills floating around...
