Umm, olbert i assume that "our double ropes" were infact MY double ropes. Before you try and wriggle out of this blatant fact let me point out my evidence.

1) dave took them from me the other week
2) One of the ropes is blue
3) you are both tightasses, so i know you havnt gone out and bought your own.

Some hints for you next time you borrow someone's ropes without their knowing, and plan on surviving the aftermath.

1) Dont get them stuck while rapping.
2) Dont trash them when pulling the ropes out of the jam
3) Dont not carry prussics, nessesitating the use of rope shredding pull
4) Dont take a factor 2 fall on them
5) Dont take a factor 2 fall on them as the scrape across "gritty rock"
6) Dont mention the "suprising amount of blue fluff" you found where the ropes got jammed
7) DONT say that you did all this in a place where i can read it.

Cant wait for some brand new Beal Cobra II 60m golden dry ropes to arrive in the mail, thanks Olbert!
