I vote for "None". Sounds like someone gets their facts a little crossed up when fabricating reality.

Ok WLL, this is why you and i are always fighting-YOU HAVE ME CONFUSED WITH SOMEONE ELSE-GET IT THROUGH YOUR THICK SKULL! I am a climber for a company. I am an employee. I get paid, i don't pay other people. I have never owned a company with employees that need to be paid. I do some contract climbing but that is the only business i've owned and the only one that gets paid is me. $15 per hour is a little cheap in my book anyway. As for the illegal immigrant thing, about the only time i've joined that conversation is when someone was bashing Asplundh in Texas for hiring immigrants and i replied that i'd never seen any for Asplundh here in NY. Now you are right, i didn't agree with you on how you tie a blakes but why would i neg you-i work with a climber that ties a distal different than me-doesn't mean we fight about it. You got awful defensive about that and never told my why you tied it the way you do. Was the blakes even being used in 1990? Were you climbing on a blakes in 1990? As for not teaching an old dog new tricks, i'll freely admit i'm an old dog. I still use some of the techniques that i was first taught simply because i still like the way they work. I get picked on all the time about my "outdated ways of doing things" at the shop. No big deal. As for neg repping-i've never negged anyone-if i don't agree with what someone has said, i tell them right out in the open, kind of like i'm doing right now. I do have a problem that you can't seem to figure out the comma in my sig line, but that's your problem and not mine.

What's the matter, have a problem with big climbers?
