a. climb is both a noun and a verb.
b. the purpose of defining 'prussik' and 'autoblock' is to help people who don't have a high level of experience improve their overall climbing knowledge and to prevent people from fixating upon 'prussik' as the only choice available for an 'autoblock' (ie one of the posters mentioned having difficulty with his 'prussik' because he was above average weight; perhaps he can research different 'knots/bends' to prevent problems and climb safer)
c. by the way, do you know the difference between a 'prussik' and a 'kleimheist' ? a 'butterfly, alpine' a 'double bowline' ? a 'munter' and a 'clove' , all used for very different activities. if you do, good on you; but perhaps another person reading the site doesn't and may be interested enough to find out and become a better climber.
