The difference a night's sleep makes. I might have let the emotion of the day's work flow into the post a little, and if I've caused offence, I apologise.

I stand by my thoughts that the reward incentivises risky behaviour, and that if someone makes an effort to find this poor lad for the money and gets injured or worse, that the posters of the reward should be held accountable in some fashion - particularly because the reward directly contravenes advice and requests made by the emergency services.

However, in the fresh light of a new day, I doubt I'd have written my response the same way.
