You folks are so wimpy :)...

Metcalf has NEVER BEEN DONE BEFORE as a LKHC... where is your sense
of discovery?

As for OLH, the agony of it not being there this year just makes it
more enjoyable NEXT year...

Of course I really have no say in the matter as I now live in
Stamford, CT and will watch enviously from a afar how the series
plays out this year. Regardless of the 'menu of pain' you sickos
decide to inflict on yourselves, I'm certain it will live up to the
spirit of low-key.

First person to do a LIVE webcast of one of the climbs gets an
unlocked iPhone...
