Er, thanks.  I guess the thread rolls on anyway... we
just can't help ourselves <g>.

The thread has had one mildly unfortunate side effect --

Specifically, some folks have mistakenly assumed that
I just plain don't like the Trail.  And I can kinda see where
one might get that impression if they didn't know me well,
or weren't reading very carefully.

I've been trying to reassure them (privately and publicly)
that this just isn't so.  Only an irrational person would walk
1200 miles on a trail they didn't like.
