I don't believe they're enough of us to use a newsgroup either, but it
sure feels nice seeing all these people come out of the siliconwork.

I get to do a moderate amount of traveling on business, and the net
seems like a decent opportunity to find partners in advance, to fill in
the weekend with some new rock, or tired legs.
Other topics might be new equipment or techniques, I know those who
climb in Yosemite/Gunks feel up to date, but many are more isolated.

So if you happen to be stopping down at the Triangle, I'll try to help.
