[pct-l] Oops! PCT thru-hiker permit

[metam01 at earthlink.net (Monty Tam)]

Haven't gotten my thru-hiker permit yet, but I did get this email from the
PCTA.
Sounds like he's saying "OOPS!  Now here comes the real permit."

The Email reads:
HA! My bad. I'll get you another permit in the mail by sometime next
week. Keep the other as a collectors item!
Happy trails!

I want to see the OOPS! one.  The corrected one?  I can always get a new
one at the PCTA table at the KickOff.  Maybe two.   :)
