Re: On the road again

A correction to this posting from the first week of Dartlog's existance:
Stinson's own "Baltimore Jack" -- recently returned from the Trail -- pointed out tonight over drinks that he is not, as was previously reported, a graduate of Baltimore's Johns Hopkins University. He claims that his trail name (appelations given to all through-hikers by their peers) is from a Bruce Springsteen song ("Hungry Heart" from the album The River; the song opens with the lyrics "Got a wife and kids down in Baltimore, Jack / I went out for a ride, and I never came back").

Further, Jack has never been in Baltimore, but for three times passing through on Amtrack. And he'd like to keep it that way, he says.
Dartlog: we take our accuracy seriously.
