I hate to challenge the #1 and #3 contenders, but the fact of the matter is that <span style="font-weight: bold;">I</span> most likely am the <span style="font-weight: bold;">real</span> winner in this cyber-contest. When you figure that I only joined the list several months ago and still rank (no wise cracks) so high is admirable. It is not my intention to demand a re-count based on that fact. Instead I'll concede graciously in a "Gore-like" manner. However, just like Al, "The Earth in Balance", Gore, everyone knows who the <span style="font-weight: bold;">real</span> winner is!!<br><br>I hope you two are appropriately grateful.<br><br>Wheeew- <br>The Number One Post-er Child<br><br><b><i>hiker97@aol.com</i></b> wrote:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> <wbr>Unsupported writes: So true Switchback, so true... I had planned on going off list, but after being honored the
third most sought after and read poster on the pct-l and the ground swell of support and encouragement I have received since that great honor was bestowed upon me, I can not just walk away from my fans and supporters and feel I must stay, at least for a little while, to show my appreciation, by enriching the list with my wisdom and bring some laughter to my supporters and our more serious members. <br> -----------------------------------------------<br> Fully Supported Switchback replies: I know what you mean. I was going to go off the PCT-L for a while too. Take a well deserved break from the rigors and responsibilities of keeping hikers laughing. But seeing a smile or a chuckle out of a backpacker is a real treat. But there are some who consider this dribble off topic, etc., etc. I respect them. No problem. They have every right to feel the way they do. It is a free country, thank
goodness. That is what you and I fought for in the military --- their right to like and not like what they want. Good for them expressing their freedoms and choices with the delete button and computer trash box. <br> <br> Say, I noticed your recent PCT-L posts have been more main stream.
