Pick up one of these and you won't lose your GPSr again.

The September issue of FamilyFun magazine has an article about 'A beginner's guide to Questing'. In a sidebar called 'Name your quest', they mention letterboxing and Geocaching. Below is what was said about geocaching.
Geocaching is questing gone high tech. Geocachers find their treasures not with written clues but with a handheld Global Positioning System unit that uses satellite signals to locate a precise latitude and longitude. Find the geocache, and you'll take away a prize such as a chunk of pyrite or a digital watch. But be sure to leave a similar token for the next person. For more details, go to www.geocaching.com.

Some may elect to compete, some will not. The main thing is the information should be made available. Not just for member rankings, the data could be used for many other pertinent figures.

I've already gotten into a flamefest over this in BassoonPilot's thread "Premium Feature Request:" with someone overzealous who took my opinion personally, please don't start it again here. It'll waste even more bandwidth. Read it, think about it, and then just say I'm overreacting. Any increases in problems = bad to me. Keep it local, amongst friends you trust, and off the GC page.

I don’t buy into this. An Olympic athlete may take that risk because there is a big reward for winning, like a gold metal and fame that may propel a career. What reward is there being on the top of the leader board? Bragging rights at the most. Will some people cheat? Maybe, whom will they be cheating?
To tell you the truth, I’m kind of sick of all this stat grumbling of late. It’s getting old. Stats can be more than just geocachers rankings. This is just at the heated forefront.
By the way, you have three beautiful girls. I have two myself.

Notice there is no "P" in it.
We prefer to keep it that way.

Sure does make you think twice before going into a public pool.
I remember seeing a sign by a pool once that read: 'We don't swim in your toilet, so please don't pee in our pool!

It's a shame that all the data this site has is not being put into good use. Instead, it's laying dormant.

Found this deer guarding the 'Love That Dirty Water' cache by Cachew Nut. Actually saw many deer while hunting this cache. They were not afraid of my presence either.

Double check the cache coordinates, especially if your hiding a cache.

And, don't get so involved in finding the cache that you miss the nature around you.
Or bring TP just in case.

After finding a cache, make sure cache container lid is closed tighly and cache is put back in it's intended location. Make sure it is protected from muggles. When I've done maintenance checks on some of my caches, for whatever reason, some geocachers move them to be easier to find. Many times too easy. Put them back where you found them!

Several ideas seem worth merit here. A seperate page like Dan's was is a great suggestion, and having someone with the skills necessary to maintain it and the bandwidth to support it, would be great as well.
I know of one person that is ready, willing and able to take this role on. All he needs is Jeremy's blessing.
