This is EVERYTHING that is wrong with climbing Everest now

Everest pioneer blasts climbers who left dying man

Totally freaking wrong...

If you are a group of climbers heading down... splitting the resources between the climbing group to keep someone alive? Makes sense...

That and climbing up? Hmm lets climb this rock that we paid $50,000 or more to attempt and ignore that guy who's dying...

Completely fucked up...

Here's another beef...
I just listened to the Cannondale story from the Missing Saddle Audio Blog...
I wonder, Could Chris Zimmerman (i assume who was doing the 'interview') stick his tounge further up the ass of cannondale? I mean brand preference is one thing, but that just struck me as freaking wrong... The bike's great, don't take my dissin as against C-Dales... i've owned em, sold em, wrenched them... might even race em one day. But that audio report, major techincal issues aside got me all outa shape. Not to mention, maybe he can work on some skills for taping recording audio... like using a microphone foam windscreen... Sure it was probably a spur of the moment recording at a race (it sounds like) but still... sheesh.

I'm on the fence about bitching directly - i think i'll let my beef simmer here for a day before heading over there with a the flame thrower and my nomex suit...
