Boy, what a big tadoo over nothing.
This is a local event that will be attended by local cachers that know
each other. It appears that everybody making a big stink is not from this area.
Every one here in the quad cities knows what a big jokester Charlie is.
And they all realize that a purchase is really not required. They also know
that you don't have to be there between certain times to qualify to log it.
I spend many hours with Charlie and probably know him better than any other cacher. I don't think a single person planning on attending this event ever thought
that they had to buy something. The event will go on listed or not and I will buy a cup of coffee.
I think it might have been prudent for the Ill.Adm. to have contacted Charlie
to discuss the concerns.
