  • A confession about our 2006 gain is in order. Our most important business, insurance, benefited from a large dose of luck: Mother nature, bless her heart went on vacation. After hammering us with hurricanes in 2004 and 2005 – storms that caused us to lose a bundle on super cat insurance – she just vanished. Last year, the red ink from this activity turned black – very black.

Quotes

Such disagreements legitimately exist between people of different age and mentality, born on different continents. It would be strange if those disagreements didn’t exist at all.

To them, it’s absolutely necessary that everyone around them live life by their patterns. If such a zealot is given no power, he is merely amusing and is quite harmless. But God forbid that he is given the means to try out his recipe on others. The Russians are personally familiar with such experiments. The one bad thing is that such discussions lead to disunion among people practicing this wonderful sport. Climbers, including their elite, have little association with each other as it is. To the Atlantic Ocean that separates us, do we have to add a swamp of discussion on who’s better? Synnott, Mark. The Impossible Climb (p. 139). Penguin Publishing Group. Kindle Edition.
