In the event of my untimely demise on step 1701, I hereby bequeath my worldly
possessions to.

dave, I'll see you Sunday on the 1702nd step.

Well, I stepped past the 1702nd step and no Chris....

There was a medic were at every 30 flights, in case of whatever may occur.

The internal guts of the CN tower are hollow--this I did not know.

I did the climb of 1776 steps in 32 minutes adn 2 seconds.  A personal best but
then again, never did it before.

I was feeling pretty good about the time until, whilst gathering my free swag
afterwards, I overhear the PA announcer stating that an 80 year old man just did
the climb in under 20 minutes.

What else--there is no elevator access (that I could see) anywhere along the
stairwell.  There were man-doors in the concrete every 30-40 flights (150
flights all together) and they were on teh outside so I think they're for
checking out hte wiring for those lightning rods...

So I'm done and still alive--sorry Chris.
