And people who enjoying reading as much as hiking read both.  I liked the 
book, and read it not for the purpose of learning about the trail, but for 
sheer entertainment purposes.  Rarely when people are doing research do they 
rely on one book alone, and surely realize at some point that Bryson's book 
wasn't an accurate depiction of the nature of the trail, but sheer 
entertainment.  Remember that, people?  Entertainment?   Is it some sort of 
crime to read a freaking book?  I've never heard such an uproar and 
personally think its ridiculous that we're even having this discussion.  I 
read Mein Kaumf by Hilter and it doesn't make me a Nazi.  Real hikers my a$$. 
 I don't blame Bryson for not attending the conference.  Who wants to get 
reemed by a bunch of rigid hikers?  Not me, but I know I'm in for it now!  
Eeeek!
