And by “they” I mean where the banquet is held.

How far are they from where you are Den? and who would I go about contacting for a newsletter?

That website is not coming up for me.

I’ll be darned. I cannot remember who I was talking to, but they said while someone was trying to get it back up and running. it was currently defunct. This is good to hear. Have you been in the past few years?

That is cool, Den. I wish the OTBS was still thing. I always dreamed of going when I was a pup, and now it is gone.

Glad you are back, Dave. I am not much good with them either…

Hope your knee heals quickly as well.
Most of the lifts I would like to see gone are due to their silliness factor. Lifts like the Steinborn and Zercher are part of what makes all-round all-round, but there is certainly an element of danger to both of them. Probably the closest I came to see someone die or sustain SERIOUS injury on a lift was on the Travis lift, when they almost pulled around 1200 pounds over on themselves (if memory serves). I believe that lift is named after the great Warren Lincoln Travis, who was a true all-rounder. I dislike the silly lifts such as combine a hodgepodge of different lifts to name after someone. Or anything where you wear a plate on your head. Might as well lift in a jester costume… Or a lift like the inman mile, which has never actually been done, so it can truly not have any records, since no one has actually completed a mile as such. It is not called the inman 200 yards.

Sounds like some outstanding lifting, Abe! We did ours back in August the same day we did the world Postal. Is the reverse snatch just a regular snatch with your grip facing the opposite way?

You joke, but perhaps you are right…

I am opposed to doing anything retroactively. That would be a huge amount of leg work, and not even feasible, I doubt, unless one kept every issue of Clark’s newsletter.
