I'm thinking a router problem, tried to ping them but no return. The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.

I think it’s just a big lack of communication between cachers and gov or park officials ect. She probably thought it is just a bunch of kids and that caching sends these "kids" to a place to play, and the picture made up her mind for her. I and two other cachers were at a National Historic Site searching out a virtual that was right on a trail and not off the beaten path of this place(GC1EE3), to get there you walk right by the center. As we were heading back up to the parking lot after finding the virtual a worker stopped us and asked what it is that we were doing (in a very nice way) she was curious and could tell that we were not being mischief, so we told her about geocaching and she welcomed us (The geocaching community) she told us a lot about the tombstone that was the virtual. I don't know if the cache owner talked to the people in the center about adding (you can't "Place" a virtual) the virtual. A cacher that is wanting to add a virtual in a place like this really needs to stop at the office and talk to the manager or someone that is in charge, not just someone that is working the counter and explain to them what geocaching is about, a lot of people that are ignorant on the subject thinks that geocaching has something to do with digging, if you could also take that person out with you to the place that you are planning on using as your virtual and show them how you mark the spot, as in not with something hidden in the ground or whatever but that the satellites mark your coordinates. I think people/governments/rangers etc would lighten up on us, they think that we are a bunch of people "sneaking around" looking for "buried" treasure. Another place we went to yesterday had 2 caches hidden on this private land, it is a large Chapel (GC4902) with a lot of acres and plenty of wooded area but the cache owner contacted the owner of this place and asked for permission and explained what it is all about and explained that it is a family (for the most part) sport and would also bring people to his Chapel for the tours. So he gave his permission and liked the ideal. So to the point at hand! We as a group need to START a "legal matter" in this, it is called "freedom of speech" and geocaching.com does NOT have to remove the virtual from its site. They can NOT tell us that we can't go there it is a public place! We need to stand up for our rights not just as geocachers but as human beings! Wait we don't live in Iraq, do we? It wouldn't be bad but this lady doesn't know how to handle this situation, and the way she did, she should not be the person that is in charge of their "PR" Sorry to get off on a rant there, but I hate people like that.

quote: Its on the back of the cameraTake a look LOL! It does say SHOOT, What can ya say. It most definitely looks like a 22. I have a question: Was it found on the ground or was it tied back up in the tree? The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.

Was that the orange or white (cover) Zig Zag's? I tried on the orange one's and with a felt tip pen I could actually write on it 3 lines but only a few words. Here is what was on my first attempt. Found 03/05/03 nice place for a cache took So then I tried this on another one: Found 03/05/03 Took axe, left sledge hammer I tried to light a fire with one but within a half a second it was gone! POOF! Just having fun with ya The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.

How can you write on Zig Zag papers? The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.

I get the same thing with my Meridian Gold. The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.

Can't believe I hit the button twice....I deleted my first message which is/was the same as my second

I have one that is in my cache right now in Galena Kansas that the owner wants it to go to FL and get it's picture taken at Walt Disney World. Schermerhorn Park Cache Kind of far away to get to you though. The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.

LOL! I have two brothers that are lawyers and i'm always corecting them. The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.

"immature" That was the word I was trying to think of! So what was your disagreement about? geocaching or something personal? The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.

quote:Team Boogidy (bottom quote) ...Running over the same old ground, what have we found?... "...the same old fears?" The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.

WOW! That not right! Just because you have a disagreement with someone else doesn't give you the right to delete his logs. The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.

I just can't understand why people would want to cheat, they are cheating themselves in a way, who cares how many you have, I love the adventure and the exercise! A patch would be good at every 100th and a party for every 1000th!! quote:...and you can't add chlorine, either. That is so true!!!! The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.

I think it would be nice to have something to show how many caches you have found, maybe at every 100th. BUT! if this was to makes people want to cheat then that would stop the fun of it, or make it Not a hobby anymore. mmhhhhhh, I think you talked me out of it. dadgum I'm too easy! The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.

I think thats an ideal I'm only have 92 to go The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard. [This message was edited by Roadster on March 02, 2003 at 06:31 PM.]

Welcome to the geocaching "bug", I too am a "newbie" and fell in love with this sport right from my first cache found. Plus I wouldn't have known about most of the places I have been (within a 35 mile radius of my home) if it wasn't for geocaching. Not to mention the exercise I have gotten, and if the temperature would get over the freezing mark and melt off this snow I would be out looking for more.

My username is from the type of cars I own, mostly from my favorite one which is a 1934 Ford Roadster, so I thought it is fitting for my nick. The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.

I with ya for Missouri! Sign me up! I also know a place in Kansas that needs cleaned up, it's the Quail Farm West of the town of Pittsburg Kansas. When I was there looking for a cache last week I noticed where someone dumped some trash , what a shame! The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard.

I Want One!!!! How many of you believe in telekinesis? Raise my hand...

I like the program to change the "Lawyer" screen. That is great! Thanks again How many of you believe in telekinesis? Raise my hand...

Well I read the Owners manual first thing, that’s why I asked for "tips" and or "tricks" you know stuff that isn't in the owners manual. Thanks for the Unofficial FAQ. How many of you believe in telekinesis? Raise my hand...

The caches at Precious Moments were authorized by the owner himself, he welcomed them there, and he is a very nice guy. I'm not the one who placed the caches there and I haven’t visited them yet, but will soon, I just know the owner. How many of you believe in telekinesis? Raise my hand...
