No. Not really. Had you actually read my previous post throughout this thread and others, you might realize I'm somewhere in the middle of the road. Not that it makes a shit's worth of difference to you. I guess since Ron's gone you need a new whipping boy, eh?
Back cleaning 'cause I'm sort of disgusted with the BS. It's old. I'm getting tired of participating, as it's becoming extremely clear that nothing I say or do holds any value here. Continue on. Enjoy. Revel in the altruistic and entirely just forum you're striving to create!

Altruistic creations?
How about calling a chump out on his words?

You mean me, or Ron? I duno. Seems like you've got some kind of issue with me now. Am I the new "chump"?
I called Ron out enough to piss him off several times. Did you mistake me for him smehow, or do you simply take issue with my greater concern over the CO toxic spill than a dead lion?
At the least, you seem to think its appropriate to villify me and make jest of my decision to remove what posts constitute non-climbing content, while from the other side of your mouth decrying what a horrible person Ron was for the things he posted.
Is it your intention to now drive me frm the forum as well? My what lofty intellectual foresight you have!

It's old. I'm getting tired of participating, as it's becoming extremely clear that nothing I say or do holds any value here. Not true. Opinions are like arseholes. Everybody's got 'em and they all stink.
But try and live without one...
And if your Obscure Climbs thread isn't valuable I don't know what is.

In many cases you may be in total agreement with them - but they are either too goddamned dumb to read the whole post, or if they do, to damned stupid to address it factually: so they attack you as they are too fu**ing dumb to give a reasoned response.
Too true. And it applies to both sides of whatever political, religious, or social debate is under way.
Sure, it would be great to say that everyone who agrees with my political/religious/social point of view is thoughtful and serious in their posts, while anyone who disagrees is clearly wrong. But, alas, it just ain't so.
I don't know about you, but I would love to discuss some serious, non-climbing topics with the collective wisdom that is Supertopo. But I can't do it, because there is a small group -- maybe ten or twelve people -- that take over every off-topic thread and render it useless to the rest of us.
These as#@&%es just have to scream at each other on every thread.
What kind of pathetic lives must people like that have?

9. “America is in trouble, and I say God is about to wipe this nation from the face of the Earth. I’m not crazy, I’m not drunk, how long do you think a nation can do evil and not face the wrath of god?”
That's from Pat Robertson, right?

If any of you are actually concerned about Africa's wildlife, as opposed to calling Ron A names,
I suggest looking at this month's Nat Geo, the one also featuring the climb in Myanmar, which
has a very good article on the ivory problem. Killing a few lions, while heart-wrenching, is NOT
the biggest problem facing African wildlife.

When we humans "harvest" the fish population we do so as a pack.
The single Izaak Waltons who do not catch and release (hats off to the Chief and others who think like him about "limits") are convinced, unfortunately, that the full creel and the trophy fish will somehow impress others.
These miserable idiots probably think the size of the worms in their crotch means something.
Same goes for trophy hunters, Ron. Sorry, bud. Your art is gonna hafta go the way of the dinosaurs if we want to live equably with nature.
