Hey you stole my signature quote.
Seriously though, maybe the Guest was onto something with the comment about "liberal new age left coast types" being more into the wilderness type programs. There is definitely a different thought process among us westerners who actually live near the wilderness, grew up with it, visit it often and find it to be a fantastic getaway from the stresses of modern urban life.
I don't imagine as many conservative eastern Republicans fall for the wilderness therapy sales pitch, probably because "wilderness" is such a foreign concept to them -- something they might have seen on TV or in a book, but never actually experienced. They're probably much better candidates for the "boarding school" sales pitch, which sounds so preppy and upper class, as in "after boarding school, junior will go to a really fine college."
