[What happened to “you pack it in, you pack it out”?]

FROM STORY:

Last year, the Nepali government instituted a new rule requiring each climber to bring 18 pounds of trash off the mountain — “the amount it estimates a climber discards along the route,” according to the AP. Climbing teams that don’t comply forfeit their $4,000 deposits.

“Each expedition to Everest is required to take a garbage deposit and bring their waste back,” Everest Summiteers Association general secretary Diwas Pokhrel told CNN. “But this system has not been strictly implemented.”

There’s a homosexual reference in there somewhere.

That’s only for conservatives. Remember those two gatherings on the National Mall a few years back?
