In reply to Dominic Green:
I agree.
I think for a lot of people climbing's about getting out in the natural environment without profit or winning having to always be the main focus of attention, unlike a lot of the rest of the day to day activities.
I worry the main stream publicity of an event like the Olympics could drive the commercialisation of the sport to a level that the majority of the control moves from the climbers and there clubs to the businessmen.
On a more positive note if it does get into the Olympics, on the days its showing Stanage and froggat may be quieter than normal. So you will know where to find me....
