Callous disregard for safety is an indicator of a severely selfish and self absorbed individual.

Lanyard or rope, I ALWAYS have a means of quick self rescue. About 3-4 years ago a climber in Vancouver died as a result of climber with only a lanyard. Cut his left arm, hit an artery, bled out.....died alone at the top of a tree. If he had a means of self rescue, he would have been on the ground in 30 seconds where his groundman could have applied pressure and at the very least he wouldn't have died dispairingly alone.
