I have a Canon 20D that I take with me everywhere, not exactly small, but it does a great job. All of these shots are with the 17-85mm IS lens. (Taken in New Brunswick overlooking Quebec) (Taken in Baxter State Park, Maine) (Another from Baxter State Park) (South Shore of Prince Edward Island, Canada)

We were watching it on the NASA channel last night. It's great having DirecTV, so we get all those odd ball stations.

If you say so. But I disagree. The battery simply hasn't been produced for that length of time in AA and AAA sizes. You think a market like Atlanta would be skipped for 4 years? I don't. e2 Titainium are another energizer battery that's probably been on the market since 2000 or so, which is why I thought that's what you meant. They're all silver with black lettering rather than sliver/blue/black like the lithiums. Taken from an Energizer Press Release: The full press release can be found on Energizer's website: http://www.corporate-ir.net/ireye/ir_site....&item_id=640889

You may be confused with e2 Titainium batteries. I don't believe the e2 Lithium batteries have been on the market for 5 years. They've been around more like a 1 year+ I have used e2 Lithiums almost exclusively for the last 8 months. I also have started to use Powerex NiMH, and am using them more now that it's warmer weather. I do still keep a 4pack of the e2 Lithium in my backpack tho, and will use them more when the weather becomes cold again. They're an excellent battery, providing over 60 hrs in my Garmin 76c (2AA). To the guy that works for Energizer... Do you get the batteries for free? That would be a nice perk Ummm, no confusion. I first started buying the e2 Lithiums in September of 2000 in Wisconsin. btw... What's Titainium?

I've used the Energizer e2 Lithiums in my digital camera for the last 5 years. They work great. The batteries have also enabled me to use my camera in -20F - -30F temperatures. The zoom was a little slow and the lcd wasn't working too great (had to use the eyepiece), but it still took photos. Also for people that shop at Sam's Club; They sell a 12 pack (Twelve batteries) of these for $20.

Depending where you travel and how often; a PLB (Personal Locater Beacon) may be a good investment. When activated the signal is picked up by the COSPAS/SARSAT satellite system and relayed to Earth. In general the satellite can pinpoint your position to within a couple miles. All PLB's also broadcast on a lower frequency which can be used by the rescue group once in the area to pinpoint your exact location. Some PLB's even have a built in GPS so your coordinates can be transmitted. The only downside is the initial investment of $500-$1200 for the unit.

Sure you could. I'm thinking along the lines of including a little metal/plastic container with a coin slot in the top located at the cache. Have instructions that when someone dives to the cache they need to drop a coin into the container. Then when they sign the online log they must contact the owner of the cache and provide a description of the coin. i.e. a 1975 Canadian penny. It doesn't have to be a coin, but it made a good example since they are pretty resistant to water and they are readily available to everyone.

There's no reason anyone would need a Mac. There are countless programs available for Windows/UNIX/PALM, etc that can read and write pdf.

Yes, triangulation is how to solve this problem. The link above is a good resource. Keep in mind that if points A and B are 10 miles apart you will have 3 intersection points.
