Not entirely rational

[gfish]

Which inanimate objects do you greet? There have always been trees in my life that I've been particularly courteous to. Mt. Rainier will often get a respectful nod from me. If the moon is especially brilliant I'll say hello, and Orion will almost always get a genial "How's it hanging?" out of me. It just seems polite.

Funny you mention Rainier. I feel that way about Mt. Hood.

I'll usually talk to my bike when I'm doing tear downs for deep mud cleaning.

Yeah, I'm sure I'd feel the same way about Mt. Hood if I lived in the area. Or Mt. Baker, they all have that same 'y hello thar' property. Of all the mountains I've seen, Denali had it the most, and we only get a very distant glimpse of it.

Indeed, Denali is hard to beat (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_peaks_by_prominence).
