@swkenny Thanks much, Sean, and also to Ed for his work. Stefanie never got the truth, as Maestri took it to his grave in Jan 2021. Stefanie died ten months later. The power of belief defines the human condition. Facts don't matter, they never did. Sad yet astounding in how we press on.
@net_benji Heyhey! Thanks for this, blast from the past for sure. I had to watch for a few seconds (before cringing at myself, ha) to jar my memory. Indeed, writing that book was a helluva journey! Thanks, hope you're well.
Socially distant storytime: I'm reading my book, The Tower, cover-to-cover, over the next 16 days. Episodes are free, no ads, no bullshit, but you get what you pay for. Climbers are bored, and I'm no threat to professional narrators. https://t.co/8nybFzui46
@JDMabie Ah, cool (I’m a little slow on social media :) — so glad ya like it. Was an ungodly amount of work, so especially nice to see the good words. Thank you!
@enormocast Fair enough, dude, and challenge taken: I’m refining the world’s finest margarita recipe and reading a book. (You’re welcome for thanking me for my sacrifice.)
The best films from @BanffMtnFest, in my completely biased and highly judgmental opinion. I have zero tolerance for bro-hucks-cliffs-on-loop music videos disguised as films, but Banff delivers. https://t.co/wO7dfSnYoO
Life in the shadow of the government shutdown. Kelly Cordes reports from Estes Park, Colo., next to Rocky Mountain National Park. https://t.co/0Rit0qQej6
My review in @outsidemagazine of the new documentary The Weight of Water, which premiered at the @BanffMtnFest. Layered in ways that force us to consider human qualities deeper than sight. Nice going, @ErikWeihenmayer@SeracFilms https://t.co/3XnJAL9muD
@SuburbanMtnr Thanks man! Yeah, hearing that from Jack when I was a younger climber had a significant impact. It’s a great image, too, of those guys coming up with that first “rule.”
Fascinating, resonant article in the @nytimes. History repeats on endless loop, the themes always easy to spot in others. When powerful emotions arise, evidence is no match for belief.
