Trail Names

I think we are all getting used to our new names. I noticed most people are using their real name and their trail name. The one exception is Red Eyes from NYC. He's quite a character. He has the NYC aggressive culture but is really nice. He's very enthusiastic about the trail. His brother did a thru hike in 1998, and he hiked part of the trail before. He said he told his mom he was only going for 3 weeks. He was going to call her in a couple weeks to let her know he will be gone until October.
