Of course, that would require twice as much lifeline and one very large 
(5/8", 6,000 pound) pulley. Because my tower is 70 feet, and the 
lifeline comes in 100 foot increments, I would have had to buy 200 feet 
of it. I just didn't think it was worth the cost to save a few trips 
with the extra hardware.
