		By the time Fay emerged on a Gabonese beach 460 days after he stepped into the jungle, the 44-year-old American had walked through two pairs of river sandals and 12 rolls of duct tape (he used it as "plastic skin" when river sand and sharp thorns wore his feet raw) and lost 30 pounds.

		Fay's conscience was a wonderfully adaptable one, with a tendency to poetic quotation.
