i think you could argue culture is a category with some success but the definition of culture is also fading into subjectivity.toad857 wrote: skin pigmentation is a spectrum, not a category. thinking the latter would make one a racist, no?
according to my last masters education class i took (diversity in the classroom), if you are born white, you are a racist.
therefore, according to lisa delpit, i am a racist as is my 11 week old son.
sorry, gotta run. klan meeting. and after that, we're hunting bears in muir valley.

Here, let me solve this for you. 100% MY FAULT. That would be me, the climber who fell, accepted responsibility that it was MY hand slipping off the hold while I went to clip the rope into the draw I hung, which subsequently led to my decking, et. al.
That said, there's nothing like well-informed speculation by people who witnessed via message board.
Once again, I thank all those who were present at the time who may or may not have seen what actually happened but certainly were privy to the aftermath. Without you, I really shudder to think what might have happened. I wish you all the very best.

both...
and this scenerio could've been any one of us. shit happens all the time. how many times when you're climbing you think to yourself, "fuck, i hope i don't fall right here!" knowing that if you did you'd get hurt? she just happened to fall at that moment... we've all experienced that moment a thousand times, we've just been lucky enough to not slip at that exact time. i'm glad to see the climber and belayer are both ok and learned from the experience. hindsight is 20/20, something always could've been done differently to change the outcome of any event, from 9/11 and the oil spill to this particular incident. unless bush and obama really are to blame, if that's the case........
