Hikin_Jim Sheriff Pooh-Bah Registered: 10/12/07 Posts: 1804 Loc: Southern California	Originally Posted By: Teslinhiker This new article here today brings forth more information on Richard Code's final hours and makes for an interesting read. I'd like to read this article, but it says I have to be a Plus Member of the Globe and Mail. I'd rather not subscribe. Does anyone have a link to the article that I might be able to read without a subscription? Thanks, HJ _________________________ Adventures In Stoving

A shame, but indeed it doesn't sound like he really knew what he was doing. Books are wonderful things, but there is a danger of thinking you know more than you really do. It may all sound so good on paper, but Murphy is ever at your heels. HJ _________________________ Adventures In Stoving

Hikin_Jim Sheriff Pooh-Bah Registered: 10/12/07 Posts: 1804 Loc: Southern California	Originally Posted By: Art_in_FL I suspect that he fell victim to a psychological trap known as the Dunning–Kruger effect. It is a case where a person knows so little about a subject that they have no way of knowing how much they don't know. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning%E2%80%93Kruger_effect Thank you for mentioning the Dunning–Kruger effect. I've noted it before with noob hikers. Now I have a name for it. HJ _________________________ Adventures In Stoving

Ann posted a link above and as far as I know, the MODS here frown on posting complete news articles regardless of appropriate credits included. _________________________ Earth and sky, woods and fields, lakes and rivers, the mountain and the sea, are excellent schoolmasters, and teach some of us more than we can ever learn from books.

Hikin_Jim Sheriff Pooh-Bah Registered: 10/12/07 Posts: 1804 Loc: Southern California	Originally Posted By: Ann I know this is an old thread, but I believe I have some insight that may be informative. Ann, You most certainly do have (more than just some) insight. Your post was one of the most cogent and articulate posts I've ever read on any forum. I want to thank you personally for your intelligent analysis. HJ _________________________ Adventures In Stoving
