[pct-l] Bikes on PCT- enforcement NEEDED

[giniajim]

I left of the ADZPCTKO part because its only an example of a non-paying situation.  Quit a job to take a hike?  We all have to weigh our personal situation and responsibilities.  Might well be very rational!

  You left off part of that quote. He said no rational person would leave their job to go help ADZPCTKO. 

  But I hear you! So guess I'm irrational to quit my job to hike next year? I think it's irrational to let a job get in the way of fulfilling your dreams. :)

I've seen friends leave very high paying and satisfying jobs for what in their individual circumstances were very rational reasons.
