: I suggest you find an L.A. Times and get some more details.  Your version
: differs substantially from that in the media.  I recall more than 4, and they
: had a substantial cache of weapons.  But that didn't cause their arrest.  A
: ranger went by and decided they weren't hurting anyone and let them be.  He
: figured they were just survivalists.  But later one of them threatened to
: kill another ranger and one claimed to be a government agent and when this
: stuff didn't check out and they thought they might be planning some sort of
: uprising they took them in.  I'm pretty fuzzy on the rest of the details
: since it was actually a couple weeks ago, I think, but the rangers did leave
: them alone until they decided that these people were just too whacked out.
: As a backpacker, I kind of appreciate this.  I don't want some guy thinking
: I'm an "enemy" (or a ranger) and taking a shot at me.

Alan,
	I heard about as much as you did of the news, but I didn't pay
much attention to it either. Believe me, I know how it is to be more
afraid hiking in the woods than on the streets of a big city. I use to
live in northern California were there are mines and boobe(?) traps to
protect crops of pot. It's a shame, you can't ecsape crime, even in the woods.
