I've heard of people using the bowline on a bight as a way to equalize two pieces when creating an anchor with the rope....any body know about this?

Absolutely. In John Long's books they call it the "atomic clip" when used on two bolts.

I used it as a trad anchor last September in the Wichita's. (Sorry, no picture.)
