"So take this broken offering and make me whole,
Set my feet upon the road that leads me home,
let me walk as one fixed upon the goal,
even though I've got a thousand miles to go..."

The Good Old Days

Commence "Old Lady in Rocking Chair" mode:

I remember the good old days when the Alma College climbing wall was a place with routes for all abilities; a place where the best climbers honed their skills and set routes to help others develop theirs; a place where technical routes were more plentiful than look-at-this-big-move-I'm-such-a-badass routes.

Ah, the good old days...

Without knowing anything about climbing, I submit that easy sensationalism will always eventually overrun less flashy but infinitely more complex and learned technical pursuits. I know; I listen to classical music. ;)
