PatchPro™®©, with its revolutionary ciliatechnology (sillytechnology), will make all this stuff obsolete. Just slap, stick and go. No environmental impacts.

Simple. The cilia in the PatchPro™®© will become one with the lichen. It may even be made in camouflage colours, to blend with the lichen, preserve the spirit of adventure, and annoy greenies who get upset with shiny metal bits in the rock.

Don't worry about Lichen. Werewolf claws won't damage the rock.

Thanks for your kind words, Doug, especially after some of mine regarding GU.
You may be interested in knowing that most wall climbers place their heads from below whilst climbing towards the summit from the ground. {wink}

Fatty,
Are you calling my crab a homo?!
"Well you can knock me down, step on my face
Splatter my name all over the place
Steal my pins, pick my scab,
But aw-aw honey lay offa my crab!
And don't you ... step on my big wall crab {plink, plink, plink}
Well you can do anything, just lay offa my big wall crab"
Do you like Wee-Wee's Chongo hat and stealth rubber on his feet? And BTW, how did you miss his hair extension?

Well, haven't heard from my two turtles tonight!
They were going for two pitches, but after reading Pete's essay (thanks for all the info, even if way above my climbing knowledge) and all the work that Ammon may b n for, it'll be interesting to see where they end up tonight.
I have to say how Happy and PROUD I am of all of you.
You took the gauntlet and did not let this thread crap out! I just had to write that! ; }
Keep on threading - even if it is minutiae at times - lolol
Love you all,
#1Mama
P.S. #1000 is mine! TTys

Be careful letting that dog go out to bars on a full moon night.

Can't sleep!
U climbers have No idea what you do to your parents' minds when you're on the wall!
Or at least we parents that know you're on. ; )
Even though I know there can be a bunch of reasons why Kait hasn't checked in - I still am left wide awake with a million different scenarios playing in my head...
...Kait so tired she forgot to call in
(she normally doesn't check in like this, but this climb is just - different.)
...phone died
...one of them's hurt
...the hardware (rivets) that Pete talked about yesterday blew...
...Kait and Ammon are having an all-night strip poker game
...and the scenarios keep playing on and on and on and...
So as of 1:45am, with the full moon lighting up the bedroom, and sleep as ellusive as finding a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, I shall go find some comfort food. Since I'm failing miserably at "positivity" right now.
A Parent's Perspective,

...phone died
I bet that's it. Or it's broken. If there is any real problem, we would have heard about it by now and you'd have both the army and marines of YOSAR on the task.

Supermama.....I know what you mean. Being a parent has it's double edge....the joys of watching yer kids....and the worry of not knowing how they are doing. Bet everything is fine, maybe like you said, just too tired or the phone pooped out. One reason I never pushed my kids to climb...so I had one less worry of them. They may be pushing to get the next pitch done, so they can get off the wall. Hope you got some rest and hope they're both fine!
Peace
