[pct-l] Nicknames



You'll understand the first time that you are asked if you've seen John....

Then they'll describe him as a thruhiker...unshaven, smelly, and heading 
towards Canada..

That may narrow it down to 8 or 9 people...

Trail names end the confusion over the many Bobs,Johns, Marys etc that are 
on the trail..
