You are on a Grex walk and another walker (who found us through the
Observer ad and isn't on Grex and doesn't like techy talk) tells you that
she wants to use the walk to get excercise, but doesn't like the
conversation much, so next time she comes she may bring headphones so she
doesn't have to listen to it.  What do you say to her?

sure, go ahead, but you'll miss out on some interesting conversatation...

What I would say would depend on how much self control I was capable of
excersizing at the moment, but I would certainly wonder why she had chosen
to walk with the group at all.  Did this actuallly happen?

You may regard the situation as hypothetical.

it would be different

I'd encourage her to perhaps bring someone along whom she feels
she can converse with, or to at least listen in on the conversation
periodically. I can't imagine why she'd want to walk with other
people if she's planning to be in her own little world at the time, 
though.

Good idea in #6, and a good point in #7.

I have never been on a GREX walk so cannot comment

I'd encourage the person to listen in on conversations at least and try
talking with the others there and remind them that grexers don't bite.
