The information about all the new hard climbs are Hot Flashes that the Internet shows us -- even at the same time that they happen. It’s like the stock quotes on the luminous screens of Wall Street. We almost don’t have enough time to know nothing about these sends. It just reminds me of simple, cold, empty data. The difficulty and the high grades have become an exchange coin for some new climbers. The slogan would be how hard you climb, how famous you will be, how much happiness you’ll have. 

Well, I know that is pretty exaggerated but I think day-by-day it can become more and more real. I recognize that probably I have contributed to this with my news ... but I really do not identify myself with this. I really prefer the sport climbing that is climbing with friends, enjoying the act of climbing and what this action involves even more than the short successes -- with a long road to walk and having fun just walking this road. Graduations, short success, fame ... is the sparkling of the Champagne, and the important essence that still will exist in time will be the Champagne and the sediment that it will leave in our life. 

Piiiiii, suddenly the alarm of the chronometer sounds. I snap back and start my next round.
