		In climbing terms, Tom Patey's "The Art of Climbing Down Gracefully" was so exhaustive that little scope has been left for development; he rumbled all the best excuses like "I'm not on form today".
		Patey's response was to ask if any climber ever admits to to actually being on form?
		Patey's "wrong gear ploy" was also a classic: the climber who turns up at the CIC hut in February wearing PAs, or with high altitude Everest boots at Harrison's Rocks in Kent.

	Outdoor Leadership Training Seminars - Centered Climbing Article (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Tom Patey, a famous Scottish climber, suggested that to climb with ease and abandon we need to allow the primate within us to emerge and produce a flow of movement which is as natural and instinctive as the impulse of a one year old to climb over furniture and up stairs.
		The implications of this, and the lessons to be drawn from such experience, can have a profound effect on how one views one's life and choices.
		In Patey's opinion, it is a "letting go" rather than a "making do." Others would suggest that it takes a finely honed control of one's mind and body to apply muscle and balance in just the right combination.
