Two words for the hikers...

Appalachian Trail

[susannah59]

What on earth possessed these people to want to hike there? The Iran-Iraq border is pretty low on a long list of places I'd rather not be.

Not that their being taken and held is in any way OK, nor that our government shouldn't be taking much stronger measures to get them back.

For one thing, Imadinnerjacket should be persona non grata in the US while American citizens are being held. (Should be anyway IMO)
