[pct-l] Wondering about pct-l listserv copyright...

So, I was just browsing the "Sharing the PCT" Facebook page, and see that
they've been copy/pasting comments from this list onto their wall. These
are comments that they've deemed particularly aggressive towards MTBer's.
Someone has pointed out that there is a copyright notice at the bottom of
each message, and I'm a bit disturbed that these are being sent out into
the FB world without people knowing it.

Is this something to be concerned about?

Also, I'm very disappointed in whoever is running this FB page. Obviously
you're ON this list, and you've been picking out the few negative comments
and completely misrepresenting the MANY on this list who have expressed
their discomfort with such language. Many of us (including myself) have
expressed extreme trepidation about having bikers on the trail for various
reasons (my main reason being safety) but have done so graciously and
without animosity.

So, just wanted to point that out. Most people who like that FB page
probably are on the pct-l, so they're only getting a very bias view of what
we talk about here.

Cheers,
Lindsey
