Hey DK, its funny how a sharp comment provokes a response.

But to answer your question, and in my opinion, yes, ownership of a statement or view deserves respect, to heckle from the back of the room does not.

On the climb, I have writen to BA offline to find out if somebody may have FA'd it, if it doesnt look like its been climbed I think I will ask Neil if he will bolt it for me so that if Im lucky to do another, I can then do it myself. I am of the other camp, I think that climbing ethics of old should be respected and passed on to us new climbers, just think they evolved by word of mouth uncallenged for so long, I know I am in no position to change them.

Contrary to popular belief, I am a real person too!
