After sitting back and listening to all the comments made about this particular bolting issue I can honestly say that I agree with you Bob. After reading and Re-reading your comments your views and opinions seem to be very balanced and without any one eyed "my rules are the best rules" rhetoric.
The best and most important part of your post was your last paragraph, If more climbers werent so possesed by their opinions and were more open to accepting others thoughts then this whole bolting issue might have a chance of being solved.
