| | | Okay.. Sometimes when you tell someone as a side note... and please don't mention this.. they do anyway... this sport/activities breeds storytellers... Writers are also storytellers... when storytellers get together... they tell stories.. Still too cryptic? I didn't mean for that one line to get published.. it did... what can I do now? Be more careful in what stories I tell to whom..... Sorry.... PS that hardware store rope was used once on a hill about 15 feet... Now I used specialzed rappeling rope with a strength rating of 5000lbs.. or sometimes a climbing rope (strechy)rated at 2500 LBs.... Very Safe.. I taught myself how to climb.. but I wouldn't suggest rappelling off anything for your first time without someone who knows what's up...

I'm still a bit confused. You mean about the Lower Bay thing? You shouldn't worry so much about it....... t'was a joke that I pointed it out. I just thought, y'know how else would you try going about accessing a subway tunnel. Walking off the platform would be the most obvious conclusion.
Here's a lockpick. It might be handy if you, the master of unlocking, take it with you. |

:: shrugs:: it happens....people talk and other people find things out...don't worry bout it. And with respect to rappelling, the reason why I make the comment that people are idiots...is because people CAN be idiots. Even the best climbers out there make stupid mistakes (such as misfeeding a grigri/automatic belay device or not inserting a cam properly)...it happens. The reason why /i'm/ cautious about it is because i KNOW people who've broken both heels, wrists and were immobile in a bed for 8 months (i.e. my buddy Kevin who thought that buildering was safe as long as he stayed below 3 stories). That's my two cents. p.s. stretchy climbing rope = dynamic...and I do hope that you cut off the section of rope that reaches a fall factor of 1.7

| | | Am I the only one who can't read this article? I just get the first couple of lines and then some crap about having to log in. Maybe someone could post the entire body of the article here, please?
