Hi guys,

Please be aware of a climber called Michael Cornell, he climbs in the Blue Mountains grade 22-25 and he isnt great at belaying, i have hit the ground and a couple of my mates have. Just dont want any one to suffer from his lack of belaying skills

Is there any way we could make this issue the beginning of our own 'Wings of Steel' movement?

If so, who'd like the part of Mimi?

Is Fred Browne (fbrowne) the posters real name (fairly annonymous name, first post at midnight, no obvious hits on internet search)? If not, this thread should be scrapped as it's potentially defamatory. Maybe should be dropped even if the poster's name is genuine.

Yea not sure about this. Seems like an unfair name and shame given this is a very public and easily accessible forum.

I'm going to lock this topic right now - and am waiting for a reply back from the original poster. I want to make sure that Michael knows about this topic before it goes any further.
