Very true, but I stay logged in permanently so it wouldn't bother me !!

I was actually thinking along the lines of this website - Degree Confluence Project

I got this from the US Postal site, which is funny because I thought they were a cycling team ?? It seems in the UK the postcode (our version of zip) is a little more specific (well, there are less of us !). I searched around the zip code '37219' , 2 miles radius and got 76 caches !!! Try that around my postcode - GL16 7AD !!

Welcome into the shady world of GeoCaching . . . . . . . . . . You may never leave !!

I'd imagine it would be based on the maximum characters that the owners of the database have set for the nickname field. They usually default to 50 chars for a text field, but the maximum is around 255. My guess would be 50.

A Confluence of cachers ??
