i get what your saying though with the character reference.
It would be like me going down a powerline trail. after all the bitching i do at people who do this, it would make me seem like a hypocrit.
in your situation, if one follows the tread lightly motto on trail systems and parks, then why does that not carry over into his personal life and on his personal land?
i knew this was going to be a fun topic. thats why i said it was interesting in my first reply =)
