Complacent Double Standard

While I'm at it - here is something for all you bolt clippers out there to ponder. SOME of you guys and gals get pretty pissed when someone removes bolts near good gear - even when the bolts are added to an established route (many others don't even care). When I restored Glasstic at Sandrock a few years ago, I caught all kinds of grief. Why don't you same people get upset when someone gets carried away with the Hilti???
