What utter -------- !!! What makes you think any one group is any more
responsible for leaving trash on the trails ? Where I hike I see the same
trash on the trails and these are hiking trails only. It's not unusual to
hike in 6-8 miles and find beer bottles and cans, candy wrappers, plastic
bottles, empty propane cylinders and anything else you can imagine. I just
can't figure out how someone can manage to hike in with a case of beer but
can't carry the empties out. Some people are just slobs, the method of
transportation does not matter. It is a few bad apples that ruin things for
everyone else.

Ah, another "student of history". The Nazis were a fascist organization.
You can't get much further to the right than that. Don't let the use of
the word Socialist fool you. They were no more Socialist than any
Peoples Democratic Republic is Democratic. If you don't understand the
terms used in the debate look them up. I suggest Google or even a good
dictionary. :-)
Oh yes, one more thing. Stop cross posting.
