Respect for the dead is nice and all, but they're dead. Unless you think that they're still hanging around (I don't), then respect for the dead is really respect for the living who remember the dead. Anybody, cacher or not, knows to be respectful when there might be mourners in a cemetery.

Hello everybody! I read about geocaching in a magazine a year or so ago, but didn't a GPS and couldn't afford one. recently I won one in a competition, so I decided to try it out. the rest is history. assuming you're the sort of person who considers 4 finds "History".

I guess I'm not adding much that hasn't been said before, but I definitely don't have a problem with caches in cemeteries. While we were up in Georgia we found a beautiful cemetery full of foxes. There were lots of graves from the civil war, and interesting headstones. I'd definitely would put up a cache there, if I lived close enough to maintain it.

Cool story! But I'm fairly sure that, though that is a cache, it isn't a Geocache. I found several definitions of Geocache and Geocaching online, and all but one mention the GPS. Sure, "Geo" and "cache" have both been around for a long time but the word "Geocache" is rather new. The ancient romans used the latin words "tele" and "vision" a long time ago, but the word television is modern. Besides, Geocachers place caches for other people to find, and a traditional cache is hidden so that the hider can come back to it. On another note, I haven't the slightest idea why I care about the outcome of this argument. I'm gonna go have lunch.
