Hmm, only 11 year, I'd BETTER live that long. Seriously.
I'm totally in -- if I live that long. Anyone up for trail running on Olympus Mons?
@GypsyKing Power -- and the fact that something is currently done -- does not = the right to do it.
This incident is preposterous and unjust, and I can't believe people support the mountain thug team on this one.
Permits are nothing more than a government racket, so I have only a very faint sense of outrage for a climber who tries to summit without one. Any outrage is based solely an appeal to fairness to other climbers who did pay, and to respect for the pseudo-property-ownership that governments unjustly wield over natural spaces in every country on earth. By what right to governments charge for access to the earth? Answer: there is no right.
And I mean we're talking about China here, a dictatorship with no due process where minor infractions and mere criticisms of the state can end your life as you know it. Ridiculous.
