And my opinion:

The same can be said about tolerance.  If you can't
foster a spirit of tolerance and open-mindedness for
others for the duration of a hike, then look within
yourself to determine why...

occassional fart throughout the night yet tents instead
of using shelters, as not to offend those less tolerant"
