Hey, don't worry about it, that's just how it came through to me, most likely because of my own experience in thinking about these things. I often noticed how extremely excited my brother gets about traveling and how he tends to evaluate people predominantly on criteria related to it. From there I noticed how other travelers have a tendency to overdo the traveling thing as well. When I read your examples and how quickly and carelessly you labeled these people, you came across as someone like that too. Maybe it was a you-had-to-be-there kind of thing, but when you dismiss people like the first 2 japanese guys as not awake simply because of their attitude to traveling... well, I don't grok that.
