The story goes that Table was drilled and climbed first (before Mercy) because PJ was specifically looking for a 5.13 at the time (as someone already said: to put the Red "on the map.")...

Wow... well it looks like I am gonna have to spend the rest of my life trying to send the direct start if I want to be able to look myself in the mirror each morning and be able to have some self respect knowing that I have done the "13a" 
direct start and can now be acknowledged by the all knowing allah & Ho-Fo! 
BTW - Where are all these new super cool lines that are going up in and around the Gorge
Inquiring minds wanna know.

Inquiring minds wanna know.Lest we all forget... climbing is a mostly meaningless pursuit that we do for fun.
where ya been rhunt..the climbing gods have already spoken on this one....see, usually they label certain 13a's as "endurance" 13a's...with no move harder than 12c...
but because there is so much energy involved in cutting this one down, the endurance factor no longer applies...sorry, brah, but I believe they are only giving you the 13a rating for the direct start, and 12d for the other start. of course, I did stunning (subtle spray) in short order, and for the life of me can't pull the crux on table from the ground...that makes stunning 12c in the spray lord book...
no, if you want the chicks to dig you, it is more important to learn to play a circle jerk, er I mean, drum circle chant for the ladies. at the very least, always bring plenty of weed and an acoustic guitar, even if you don't play.
with cool clothing , you have three options. 1)if you truly climb hard as shit, then wear blue jeans to the crag, to act as if you don't care about fashion. chicks dig these cool cucumbers.
2)for those of us in the moderate territory (5.10-5.12), chose the latest off the rack at your gym. lycra used to work, then prana and anything verve were the number...remember to keep it baggy, and always with chalk dust applied.
3) of you are a traddie, the three day beard growth works wonders, painter pants seem to still draw the "ooohs and awes", and bring a bottle of spray about the scarey as shit epics you have encountered...more importantly, work on subtely degrading those pansey ass bolt clippers...talk about building some mankey anchor right next to the bolt station. and disdain gri gri's at all cost...
best to you with the ladies!!!

What if I can't climb hard, but can only afford to wear blue-jeans to the crag? Does that mean I am a poser?
BTW, nice job on Stunning. Wish I could have seen that. You are one of the climbers that puts the "style" in climbing.
No No not me that pigsteak that send Stunning...he's your hero...I'm still working Mr bungle.
Seriously though thanks for the mis-guided props
Oh and you better find some panters pants until you get better at climbing!

I bought a subaru, and it worked for me....
