tring severely limits your ability to go to cool places or make any use of most climbing areas, plus leading is fun as hell

I would gladly free solo if I wanted to stay on 5.8's all the time, but I don't. I like challenging myself, and I'm a big fan of not dying. So if reducing the risk of death in a climb necessitates it not being a climb any more then I guess you are right, I don't climb. I plug pro, and I'm proud of it! So shut up you almighty-self-righteous-douche bag!

Aceto: 1) Is it possible for you to sound coherent? 2) You seem to edit every post you make. Then they are still incoherent. You are actually quite boring. Anyway, on to the OPs question. I started climbing before there were climbing gyms. A few oddballs would build woodies in the basement or garage. This was seen purely as practice and training. The first time I climbed, I met 2 guys (still friends, BTW) who taught me how to set redundant TR anchors, and how to belay. The second time I climbed, I grabbed the rack, and led 5.6 trad. You started at the bottom, and climbed to the top. Rock climbing was originally a branch of mountain climbing, and you cant top rope a mountain.

I actually think placing pro elevates the experience, as it forces you to focus on your foot placement and jams in order to get a stance that you can place the protection from.
