You're wrong.
And it's item 6, not item 7. This suggests that an Item 8,
'Accurate', should be added to the list.

Another sad example of the decline in the rigor of societal standards.
The PCT is greater than 2600 miles in length. I completed 1826. (Not
2000. If you really read my journal you would have netted out the
skipping I did to get around fire closures.) 1826 < 2600. I FAILED
to thru-hike the PCT. Got it? OK, good.
