And I'm not talking about our little FT corner of the universe, I'm talking about those who intentionally publicize MRing in the media.
Hahaha, I agree. I think it's best simply to not publicize an MR outside of this little club. When asked what I am doing, it's just so difficult to explain. I saw one of my former students on my most recent MR and simply told him I was going to Saint Louis to visit friends. Telling him I was flying x number of segments for x number of miles in x number of hours would be to difficult a point on which to enumerate.
