I have to agree that once was enough. I don't know if that was where I got
my fear of heights or not but I don't have any desire to go near the edge of
any thing over 10 feet.
They are talking about putting wind generators on the oil platforms in the
gulf. Sounds like a good idea to me.

Jim;
As a teenager they were building a high voltage line through our farm. A
friend and I got the bright idea to climb one of the steel towers before
they put the lines on it, think it was a little less than two hundred feet
high. The other guy had on a leather jacket and took it off at the top and
threw it. It opened up and spiraled down drifting about a quarter of a mile
in the process. It was quite windy at that height which is one reason they
now want to build wind powered turbines now in N.W. Ohio, has a constant
wind of something like 15 mph. average. But I agree, was a lot further down
than up, and once was enough!

I went to a very small country school where we ran around and partied with
the kids two or three classes in front of and behind our class. After the
class in front of our class graduated that morning that afternoon we got
together and went romping and stomping across the country side and down the
river bottom and swimming in the lake. One of the things we did was climb up
an oil derrick. You can not imagine how much farther down it was than it was
going up.
This may be a little incoherent; I just got in from driving a little over
310 miles to go to the grave side service of one of our teachers

Egad!!! I have trouble with my 12 ft. extension ladder... I nearly tossed
it on that one... My heart is still in my mouth!
I went up in the 101 and my wife made me go to the outside observation
area... Same kind of panic... I'll fly circles around it and over it ALL
DAY! but NOT this!

No thank you, I'd rather fly a helicopter with no doors.

As a pilot, I'm not scared of heights. I have no problem flying in a helo
with the doors off. But I hate ladders. It was weird; after 45 seconds of
watching that guy climb, my hands started to sweat. I couldn't control it!
