    I know it's a tragic event, and I am also awestruck at how many lives it truly has touched. I think about her everyday. I was out hiking in part of the area she was last seen just this past weekend....

    Honestly, I second this. I understand everyone wanting to know what's going on, but all the speculation and accusations have gotten out of hand. I agree this thread should be closed down.

    What did the AMC get grandfathered into? It's been around long before the ATC (AMC founded in 1876). Matter of fact, looking at the AMC history, it helped to form the ATC in 1925.
