And that's what we're doing. You just don't like the direction which the discussion is taking.

I get what you're aiming for, Patto. You think that if every incident is written up, there will be a database of information which can be utilized by all the rational and competent climbers whose only handicap is a lack of knowledge.

I don't see it like that because I'm a people person. The problem isn't lack of information, it's just that some people are clusterfuched perma-bumblies who were born useless and will die useless in horrible avoidable accidents because softies like you don't have the heart to tell them climbing isn't for fuching everyone!
