What does /out/ think of this LARPer?
He claimed to live "alone in the wilderness", but his cabin was only 2 miles away from the village of concord. That's pretty pathetic if you ask me.
Then we he went to real wilderness in Maine this happened:
>"His expectations were high because he hoped to find genuine, primeval America. But contact with real wilderness in Maine affected him far differently than had the idea of wilderness in Concord. Instead of coming out of the woods with a deepened appreciation of the wilds, Thoreau felt a greater respect for civilization and realized the necessity of balance."
