You don't have to get carried away, Bill - there are lots of thruhikers
who do that every year. There's been more than one that used the Trail
name "Motrin Along". And thousands who have overused painkillers - my
first partner on the Trail used aspirin - and developed stomach problems
because of it. Check out the thruhker papers - you'll find that I have
some definite opinions about drug overuse.
Walk softly,
Jim
