[pct-l] VVR or not to VVR?

I was in VVR in 2003 and have been there several times over the  years.  The 
people were fine, the service was excellent, the food was  marvelous, the beer 
was cold... Yes, it was expensive... ah  well.    On Bear Ridge, I found a 
note from a disgruntled  southbounder that railed and ranted and said to avoid 
VVR.  I took the  note and later threw it away.  There has been some chatter 
about things  being sold out of the hiker box.  I saw no evidence of that... and 
even if  it were true I would not be outraged.  I'm certain VVR is not a  mil
lionaire-creating venture. 
 
For the traveler, having just spent a week in the High Sierra, it's a must  
as far as I am concerned. YMMV, IMHO and all that stuff.
