The Mountain of Debt, on the other hand, we shall name Mount Denial.

    Funny thing about all this was I thought everyone already called it Denali. When Alaska stopped using McKinley, I thought that was it. And I don't find this to be a big deal, but the Matterhorn and denial comments are lulz worthy.

    I like Oliva and Quesada (including Regius) a lot.  I will smoke anything, though.
