I was browsing around Everyday Systems as usual, and started reading about Urban Ranger. When I read this, I laughed out loud for a solid minute:

But [walking] is for wusses!
"Well, maybe. If you put on bright blue sweatpants and pump your arms a lot, going nowhere with a big goofy grin on your face, sure, I'll grant you that, it's for wusses. But that's not the kind of walking I'm talking about.

Paints a great mental picture of someone resembling my father attempting to exercise. If you're having a bad day, leave it to Reinhard to cheer you up. :)

I think this is a manifestation of the human tendancy to make things much more esoteric and complex than they really need to be, I mean it's just walking, all you need is comfy shoes, a coat, and if it's raining either an umbrella or as Reinhard recently said on the Urban Ranger board, an indifference to getting wet. :D
