"Julia, I do believe JMT's post was very much "tongue in cheek". Many times things get misunderstood when in the written word, we don't have the benefit of voice inflection to let others know our statement is being made in a fun way. I don't know Reinold personally but, I have read enough of his post to know he is a good person and in no way trying to insult anyone. Terry"Terry, I DO know him personally, and this was not written "tongue in cheek". I say that because this keeps coming up regarding him, and there is a constantrefrain from women hikers who are offended. In my physical presence, he was asked to leave the KO because of the offensive remarks he was making, and the repeatedcomplaints from women participants. He is not welcome there. Some have expressed concern that they would encounter him on the trail. In the context of this site, he appears to be a "troll" in the traditional sense, posting things simply to provoke people and anger them, and he appears to LOVEgetting the attention and responses.He particularly likes to do this each year just before people start hiking, seeminglyfor no other reason than making them worry about him.
