[QUOTE="druryj, post: 3245509, member: 10465"] I forget who it was who asked the question and who answered it, but some guy asked some other guy who liked to climb mountains why he did it. The Mountain Climbing Guy answered: "Because it's there". No kidding. And it will still be there if you just stay your Chinese-Oxygen-Bottle-Breathing Self home too. But I do get the attraction; it's a thrill, and thrill seekers tend to like to walk on the edge. That's all well and good and I get it. For example; I used to really like jumping out of airplanes (and helicopters especially). But I would more than likely [I]not [/I]choose a parachute and reserve that said "Made in China. Packed by Wun Hung Lo". [/QUOTE]
