although you know what's even more right, though possibly out of place and forgotten in this thread?
The PTFTW length of alien.

But I heard that those were unpopular with some people, and considered out of date technology by many.

this chap wants aliens, people told him where to buy them. im telling him how to make sure he stays safe. I feel safe on my aliens because I have done this and wouldn't trade them for anything(maybe for top dollar or a hot climber chick). So the question is(you don't need to answer because I already know what will be said) why NOT to buy them?

Why the hell would you test your Aliens on a runout section? CAWWWW!!! Sorry capitan but he is also right.
FWIW, every piece of pro you place is also considered an anchor. You know, to the rock? I dunno though, this avian-inspired take on rock climbing may have something in it. Excuse me while I soar away. CAAAWWWW!!!

No way, man. I think he totally lost his shit on the big ledges atop The Grack. He was scared. I mean, lights are out and you're a little kid and you can hear the bogie man breathing scared.
I have seen some funny shit on The Grack. My buddy and I pared down the rack a bit before setting off on it only to encounter a three-person party rapping. The guy who was clearly the designated leader and man in charge told me to watch my buddy because the rope was behind his leg. I said, yeah, okay, but thought, yeah, he's going to fall on the bomber hand jams of a 5.6. I got a chance to eye the guys rack. It looked like he was going to siege a big wall and then I noticed a whole set of screamers. This is a 5.6!
