  1. In the case where asked by a police officer what you are doing - for goodnes sake tell them the TRUTH. There is nothing worse (or more routine) to cops than being lied to. Being lied to sets off internal alarm bells in the cop that tells him "INVESTIGATE FURTHER". He may not know what you are doing but he probably has developed a sense when he is being lied to. In some places lying to the police is in and of itself a bookable crime. Don't mess with it. If the cache is in an area the cop knows he may already know about it and not care. If it is new to him he will find out someday anyhow. Second point - this is a family sport... What we do our kids watch. What they see they immitate. If you do not want to raise little liars tell the truth. I DO consider this a scavenger hunt so teling fringe people that seems to me to be reasonable. But if you do not want your kids lying to you or worse yet growing up and lying to their spouse - perhaps a good character approach would be best. I'd rather a cache I placed was lost than to have to later deal with some lying little delinquent punk whose parents taught situational ethics and lying by their example. If you absolutely do not want to say then challenge the person asking - "Why do you want to know - who are you?" If they have authority over the property you are compelled to tell them in my opinion... if its none of their business a diplomatic way to tell them that is certainly an avenue to consider.

  3. Greetings Folks, I am looking for an online resource where I can easily put in a street address and have it give me coordinates I can feed into my GPS so as to make a waypoint or whatever. I found one place that allegedly does this but it sure didnt work for me (couldnt even find the right page). Anyone have such a neat little online resource bookmarked? Thanks a bunch.
