Sarcastically. There was a very lively thread a few weeks ago about a video including the Late Mayor of Slade.

You saved yourself a lot of grief.

I really hate dial up

yeah, dialup blows, it'll take me half anhour to see the 4m 16sec video. by that time i'll be so bitter that i can't enjoy it and hate everyone who is climbing right now. if i ruled the world there would be free broadband for all, oh yeah, and i'd free all my sons.

Every time I try to play it I get a message about the server not responding...

I think that was done for effect. It slows down when they pull in the parking lot...

I thought it was very well done....and that, of course, is all that matters. (to me anyway)

i thought the spring cleaning video was cool to watch...but I think the excessive cleaning and cutting of vegetation was unneccessary.

That problem could have easily been done with only a fraction of the cutting and cleaning that took place.

it takes years for shrubs, trees and mosses to grow on top of a boulder like those shown.

it takes only fractions of a second for a rock to fall on some earth first hippys head.

I know where this cleaning was done and it is no where near anything else except more trees and rocks and shrubs just like the ones that were cut. I would wager a guess that the only people to have even seen this boulder are the climbers who have gone to it and those who have watched the video.

The red river video is great tourist.

I finally got to grab it this weekend and I thought it was pretty cool. I wish there was more climbing and less driving though.

I think a few more people saw the video...

Fun video, but those "hippies" are the only reason you have access to places like the RRG. I would listen up if I were you, chief.
