[pct-l] Class of?

[Jon Danniken]

Thank you Bill, and thank you, Jeff.

It is unfortunate that some on this list who disagree with my positions, (as 
I will admit most currently do), find the need to call me a troll, but I 
guess it makes them fell better about themselves.

I stand by every position I have posted on this list, and mean every word, 
passionately, and solely out of reverence for the PCT and the land through 
which it travels.

Jon
