[pct-l] Shut up andrea dinsmore and all armchair pct guides.

[Ron Dye]

DA,

I agree with Laura, you are way out of line.  Your rudeness is only exceeded
by your willingness to display it for all to see.  The fact that these folks
committed a crime had been covered in an earlier post.  I saw no "ego"
displayed here, simply someone commenting on behavior that brings discredit
to the hiker community - a topic that is mentioned from time to time.  As
far as Andrea being an "armchair PCT guides" I have met her and she is far
more than that.  She doesn't pretend to be an expert but she has a lot of
experience related to the trails in her area and she actually listens to the
many hikers who come through and is willing to share current information
gleaned from them.  More than that, she and Jerry go way beyond hosting
hikers.  As far as your 30 days in the Sierra, big deal.  And, before you
claim "out of a hundred" you ain't there yet kid.  You need to grow some
manners.

Your hostile email is completely out of line.  This forum should be  
constructive not a personal attack on any one individual or their  
opinions.  People partipate hiking the pct in there own way.  Shame on  
you.  You, DA, are the hiker trash.
