...The online climbing community is a small world. While RC.com has always been the dumb kid in the family, it's STILL considered part of the family. There's no reason that kid can't change and kick ass. Those who have even a small memory of it's history may appreciate the improvement. Those who are new will find the site and find a reason to register - if something of value can be had...

Actually, there is no other climbing website where you will find the same detailed discussions about the forces involved in climbing

Curt
Even back when rc.com was the place to be, there were other sites that offered more formal and educational data on technical subjects.

Anyone who has been in the climbing gear engineering/ physics realm for more than a minute knows about the International Technical Rescue Symposium, which is the place to be for climbing and rescue geekery. If you conduct a formal study and you want people to see it, you go to the ITRS. For the many years the ITRS has existed, they have always made available their presenters' technical articles. You can view them on their website.
