  1. Hi, Nice site man, just a couple of comments for you. 1) You should define what you mean by "youth". Upper age 14,16, 18, 21 etc. 2) Where you say "cashing a check" - here in the UK we spell it "cashing a cheque". Blame the Americans for perverting our language like that ;-) 3) I think I recognise that FAQ form another site (Geocacheing.com). Please be sure to ask permission of the author or site owner to use their text and give them credit for it at the bottom of the page. Not doing so is plagiarism and copyright theft and could land you in trouble if someone does not like it. I am sure they will give you permission to use the FAQ if you ask, and may even offer to publicise your youth geocaching page on geocacheing.com. If they are going to do this, jsut be aware that this could generate added traffic to your site on freewebs.com and they may cut you off or may nto be able to take the load and you may need to use commerical hosting or ask one of the existing geocachng websites if you can "piggyback" off of their hosting service. If I do not recognise this FAQ, please accept my appoliges for mentioning it ;-) And again - nice site "Da Rubber Chicken".
  2. All, Please be mindful that Skype is not the most ethical piece of software in the world! If you read the licence agreement, by using their software you give them the right to use your machine in order to dsitribute any other electronic communications on the behalf of their network whenever they see fit. This can include, but is not limited to: using your machine as a spam relay using your machine to relay other peoples calls delivering you advertising whenever they deem appropriate using your skype client (and possibly your ID?) to deliver adds to other users (maybe by capturing your contacts list). Using your skype traffic for profiling you and what you like and then directing advertising to you or Selling your details to other companies And much other stuff. Unless of course they have changed it since it passed over to eBay ownership. You also have no right to privacy, they can store and regurgitate you messages, use them to profile you etc. Does anyone here actually READ what they are agreeing to when they install software? My experience would suggest that less than one percent of computer users actually do and so they end up giving up their rights and privacy by default. Also, it is worth pointing out that voice calling is NOT new, many other IM programs or dedicated VOIP clients have offered this functionality for years, WITHOUT the requirement to give up your rights and freedoms.
  3. Imperial for me as I cannot split units on my GPSr but if I could I would refer miles and metres. I'm 27.
  4. Also, remember, plastic is not fully watertight! Moisture (and gasses) leach through the plastic gradually over time. If you want it to be really waterproof, use an ammo box or something. You could use glass but I would suggest not, it's not very contryside-friendly if it gets broken.
