Watch animals who are good at climbing and you eventually get the impression that their minds are wired diff. They do not have the fear of falling we have although logic says they should. Clearly, this guy has little fear of falling but I wonder how much he has practiced on these particular rocks. Notice the white chalk on some of the blocks indicating a lot of use by climbers. |

Whether it's familiarity with the terrain, a natural talent, or a lot of practice, I would have to concede that the backflip on the vertical wall is unnatural. I would suspect that very few people would be able to develop that type of skill. -- Posted via NewsDemon.com - Premium Uncensored Newsgroup Service -------http://www.NewsDemon.com------ Unlimited Access, Anonymous Accounts, Uncensored Broadband Access |

In fact, I imagine that generations from now people who live in space will develop such. They will have little use for shoes and will need such feet to keep from drifting around while they use their hands. |

They will have little use for shoes and will need such feet to keep from drifting around while they use their hands. That reminds me of a science fiction novel I read years ago, "The Mote in God's Eye," by David Niven and Jerry Pournelli. It's been years since I've read it; but, it seems to me that that in the novel the human race encounters another life form that was similar to what you've described. -- Posted via NewsDemon.com - Premium Uncensored Newsgroup Service -------http://www.NewsDemon.com------ Unlimited Access, Anonymous Accounts, Uncensored Broadband Access |

I remember something in the paper about a couple of guys who had never done any climbing. The rode their mountain bikes into the desert, abandoned them, walked a ways and got the bright idea that it would be fun to climb down a cliff. Halfway down, the dropped down onto a ledge, which left them with no way back. I can only imagine their horror when they found no way down. Casady |

Over priced, 40 mile range and not a hybrid. Need to run the motor 3 hours to recharge and does not motivate the car. $40k for an in town car. Cheaper to hire a taxi. Some idiot is pressing this debacle. |
