In reply to Mick Ryan - UKClimbing.com: Excellent written news-report! Well written and funny.
However, I think you botched the names of the Japanese climbers in question. You have written the names of Fumitaka Ichimura and Yusuke Sato in conventional occidental style with family name last, however you wrote Tatsuro Yamada's name is in Sino-Japanese style with family name first. I would suggest that you wrote all three names in occidental style, after all, Japanese climber who are household names to us are always written with family name last: Yuji Hirayama, Dai Koyamada, and Hidetaka Suzuki.
Details matter.
