Hi Nick, I agree about meeting. On my way here I travel diagonally across the 
entire Navajo Reservation. Hitchhiking is a necessity on the reservation. It 
was quite hard to balance humanity with personal safety. It has always been my 
practice to give rides to anyone I see on the reservation. Those soliciting 
rides were always masked and had hand sanitizer that they used before getting 
in, and chem-wipes for the seat and anything they might have touched while in 
the truck.

Still think about whether or not I was reckless or reasonable. Do know I felt 
better about myself and value system.
