realitycheck--ive gone back and read every post since page five...
the arguments, right around page 7, came to a mutual understanding, and everyone pretty much agreed to disagree without really saying...
then on page eight, the first time i replied directly to you, i replied to something you said about climbers being good and having bad things happen. my reply was simply to point out that climbers being good will NOT hurt any access issues. i simply tried to point out that climbers acting like jerks will deifnately make things worse.
and wouldnt you know it? all of a sudden im an idiot, i dont know what i am talking about, i am making wild leaps in logic, etcetcetc...
i have tried to bow out of this stupid %@#$ing topic three times now. page 4, page 6, and page 8, and everytime i do...someone pulls me in with an attack.
well, whatever...youre the smartest dude on the planet. %@#$it, im over it.
im sick of trying to explain and defend myself to a bunch of people that are doing the exact same thing (myself included). we are ALL making our own conclusions based VERY LOOSLEY on what someone else has posted and arguing about it. its not just me, its you, and curt, and whoever...weve all been doing it since page 5.
so instead of coming back with some provoking attack on my intelligence, re-read everyones post. agree to disagree, get the %@#$ over it...
and please realiza, that while no one wants to admit it after 9 %@#$ing pages of arguing...we all really do agree. were arguing over the words that one person chooses to use to explain it to another...all of us. NONE OF US are arguing the issue. NONE OF US are using good debate techniques or tactics. NONE OF US have made any reasonable statements since around page 5 or 6.
the point? admit that we are all to blame for the devolution of the topic, and get over it. its really been dead for quite some time. the only reason it keeps getting rehashed is because im trying to defend myself from your attacks on my intelligence...

I think they should have left the flake alone.
