  1. You're talking about the magnetic declination adjustment. It changes how the numbers on the baseplate match up to the magnetic arrow - it can't alter the direction that the arrow actually points. Best Wishes, Bob Yes compasses acn be calibrated. How do the magnetic compasses in US warships ( yes theyre there) point North when surrounded by steel? I've had compasses completly reverse directions before, and slowly go back to normal. I had one compass in one spot away from anything magnetic, and the "North" needle pointed south. Placed the other in the same spot and the needle pointed 180 degress in the other direction. This post was not meant in the unfriendly tone that it probably seemed when you read. Again this is a friendly toned post
  2. Thats what I thought this thread was about!
  3. Hmmm I would have guessed you were a brown ink person. Darn no brown in the drop down box. Something tells methat it doesnt matter whats inside the box!
  4. I've heard lots of good things about Garmins. I've dropped my RINO 120 numerous things and the only ill effects I get is that a battery is slightly ajar in the battery compartment. On Garmin's website they have all sorts of horror stories about bad falls, electrocution, heat, etc.
  5. That's every D-cell There's a AAA in every AA too. And 6 of them in every 9V So whats inside of a C? Is there a B cell?
  6. Perhaps the DJ said SLammed instead of FLammed? That was the first thing that came to mind with me.
  7. I am absolutely cracking up here. You know, as someone who knows sign language, that hand shape of the finger under the chin is the shape of the letter "L" in ASL. And when you place the "L" it under the chin like that, it becomes the sign language equivalent of the word "Lesbian." So I guess I'd just be careful who you're doing it to, lol. The funny graphic of the man doing it with one raised eyebrow seems to say, "Hmmmm... is she one?" Just had to share. There is more of a "secret" to the secret handshake than you realize! Thats funny. My mom works as an ASL interpreter. She has seen me d othat a lot before and never mentioned it. Man and I thought "we can talk about anything."!!! . . . \/ . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . \/
  8. You can put your hand on your chin. Also if youre in New Jersey, ask briansnat for the secret dance thingy.
  9. Theres no overnight caches in my area that I am aware of, but if there were I would jump on them fairly fast!
  10. Personally I use GIMP 2.0 to compose a .JPG file, and transfer that into Microsoft Words's buisness card format.
  11. Its very easy to walk around a hungry mountain lion. Just because you shoot them a couple of times doesn't mean theyre any less hungry.
  12. I thought of a reasonable one, girls that are in your area. ie live close by.
  13. I take one of my friends caching whenever I can't get a ride from my parents. (I don't have my own car, and he does)
  14. Thanks for the FYI Mo'. Some epoxies wont though right?
  15. I never would have guessed that one! Guessed what? That you were a tennager. You have always seemed so 'adult'. I guess it was just the old avatar.
  16. If worse comes to worse you can carry a roll of duct tape with you. If not you can get an inexpensive rigid plastic cupholder, epoxy a block of foam into that, cut out a recess for your GPS and then bracket the cupholder onto your handlebar.
  17. That would take soooooooo much planning ahead.
  18. Thats a very good point. I would hope that most cachers would have the coomon sense not to place a cache like that.
  19. Talk about neat! Thats pretty cool. Thanks geoSquid!
