Good explanation, Tim, thanks, that's more or less what I thought: yes,
it's boring even for those who do it, but the completion of the task is
enough reward for them to make it worth it. I can understand that, though
I still don't want to do it :-)

That's probably an apt comparison in more ways than one. Some
mountaineers apparently consider Everest a complete waste of time, since
it's more about enduring pain for a long period of time than about
skilled climbing. For others it's the ultimate challenge.
Thanks, and Pat: Good Luck!
