He also has advocated that all hikers have to wear smooth-soled shoes,
to minimize trail impact, rather than any sort of hiking boots.

You guess at how much serious hiking he does, and on what sort of
terrain, compared to other hikers.

Happy trails,

I think it was Einstein who said that the only two things which are
infinite are the Universe and stupidity, and he wasn't sure about the
Universe.

Mikey's bias is so severe, that he sees bias in anything which
disagrees with his beliefs, which he keeps calling "the truth".

He is trying to brainwash people by repeating the same things over and
over to make them "true".
