Mike,
I love that signature line.
It applies to your inquiry to Bob and Ken. People want to do what they want. In a lot of cases they do not perceive the dangers involved.
Last weekend in Baldy Bowl, a woman glissaded by me with with crampons on and a trekking pole held high over her head and asked, "Am I doing this right?" Not having experience or proper gear does not get in way of some people...they want what they want when they want it. I can fill up this page with similar things I've seen during the winter our local mountains...including some of the stupid things I've done.
