Am I the only one that does this stuff?
No, but it is not necessary and actually is not optimal if you believe the engineers at Petzl who put out all of that nice literature most people don't read.
The theory of evolution is just as stupid as the theories of gravity and electromagnetism.
also, if anybody can, please donate some cash to help buy pigsteak a new harness, cause he scares me when he belays my fat ass off of his duct taped belay loop...
Yeah, It scares me too, but then I remember the sage words of Terry. "Don't fall, Don't get pumped, and most importantly stop sucking." Then I don't worry about it, 'cause I know I won't have to test it.
