1 out of every 4 climbers on K2 die in the attempt? Ya know, you could be helping fight disease in Africa or something. You might chalk up a few more points in the afterlife that way instead.

No, no. It didn't take Couric to ruin Sarah Palin. She reaches that great height all by herself.

Ever met Palin..I mean face to face? Ever asked her questions and let her finish in a natural conversation type of way? No?
Instead what you have is a filter of a person through the electronic media...with cut off replies, insinuating looks and comments by "journalists", cut-aways to other sound bytes inserted by a editing machine, one sided commentary created voice overs . In other words you all of what you take for "reality" is fraudulent. After Barrack Obama that should be crystal clear.

No argument with you there about BO. As for Sarah, I didn't see any filters during her acceptance speech at the RNC. I think the reality there was plain and clear.

Yeah, K2 is the Mountaineers Mountain, one of the most challenging summits on Earth...but Everest withou t guideswithout ox must be pretty demanding. Only Reinhold Messner and a few others have made it. Joao Garcia from my town have made it too without ox. K2 is so challenging that routes such as "The Magic Line" were only climbed a couple of times and K2 was never climbed in winter. I would love to be a true mountaineer but i am poor, no money...

Everest is for rich tourists with sherpas and oxygen. ................. K2 is for mountain climbers.
