+The Herd Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 There is no "path which runs parallel to it" (the asphalt driveway), it is on the opposite side of the field. (But once AGAIN, if you lived here, you would know this to be the case) And BTW.......the tree in question (where the cache WAS) is DEAD! From the Grey Towers website: Tree Trail - You can wander, walk, saunter, run, skip or hop through the field along the estate driveway and learn about some of the trees of Grey Towers. Tree ID signs reveal the names and most popular uses of these trees. "Look, Daddy! It's a rare specimen of Canisterus Kodakus! It is popular for people to use these trees when they've lost their marbles!" Well technically, it's Canisterus kodakus. See the specific ephithat is not capitalized! Either way, an exotic species in my book. Link to comment

+D@nim@l Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Notice he keeps ignoring the fact that this is a privately owned website that has the RIGHT to ask him for permission if they want to? Cause if he acknowledges that, all 3 of his ranting threads are moot. Why then is it ok to ignore that WalMart is privately owned property and that they may want to exercise the right to give permission to have something placed there? You keep bringing this up, though Wal-Mart's architecture and parking lot are about as far removed from Grey Towers as any two examples could ever be. I think it's time to break out the "permission post." Originally written in response to a question from someone who's been active in this thread, the "permission post" is now part of the reviewer's reference guide. Here it is: We start with the proposition that the hider of the cache is responsible for obtaining "adequate permission." Note that it says "adequate permission" in the guidelines -- NOT just "permission." We rely upon cache owners to think about this issue and make a determination about what permission is necessary. In submitting a cache report, the geocacher assures the listing service that adequate permission has been obtained, and the listing service assumes that this is the case. Geocaching.com is a listing service, not a guarantor of the proposition that every cache is placed with permission. But sometimes there are reasons why this assumption ought to be questioned. Here are some of them: 1. When a landowner / land manager such as a park system or a private land conservancy trust has a published geocaching policy that Groundspeak is aware of, then the volunteer cache reviewer will ask the cache owner about compliance with that policy. Knowing of the policy's existence, it is not appropriate to blindly assume compliance with the policy if no mention is made of this on the cache page. So we will ask whether a required permit has been obtained. We will point out that XYZ park system has banned geocaches, and ask whether the hider obtained permission despite that policy. Sometimes they do. 2. When a cache is hidden on land that is obviously private, like someone's back yard, it is unwise to blindly assume permission. Usually permission is stated or implied on the cache page ("this cache is hidden in our front yard -- please, no night caching"). If it isn't, the reviewer may ask about it. The guidelines require permission for caches hidden on private property. There's even a specific sentence about never ignoring a "no trespassing" sign. 3. Some locations are so sensitive in nature that it is unwise to assume that permission has been obtained, so specific listing guidelines have been adopted to guard against placements in those areas. Examples include airports, government buildings, school yards, dams and highway bridges. If the reviewer sees a cache in one of these locations, they will challenge the assumption of adequate permission by reference to these specific guidelines. In most other cases -- ranging from suburban parks to shopping centers -- it is up to the cache owner to determine what constitutes "adequate permission." One cache owner might conclude that no formal permission at all is needed for a particular spot, while another will obtain written or oral permission for a different cache location because their instinct tells them that permission is a good idea. If the cache owner arrives at an unwarranted conclusion, the listing service will react to questions about permission. First, if a land owner / land manager requests removal of a cache placed without permission, Groundspeak's policy is to archive the cache unless and until the hider is able to straighten things out and provide an explanation of clear permission. Second, if another geocacher sees a cache location which causes them to have doubts about permission, they are welcome to raise their concern with the cache owner. If that is not productive, the geocacher may contact the website, contact a volunteer reviewer, or place a "needs archived" log on the cache page. The system is thus largely self-policing in this majority of circumstances. Your reference guide is nice, but I think we need the opinion of a Wal-Mart corporate lawyer. That way it might be a little bit more clear. Link to comment

If I really cared I wouldn't have been so quick to archive my caches would I? YOU people may reign in your little silicon castle here, now we'll have to see what private property managers have to say in the REAL world. Well, first there is the issue of quasi public land, and areas of public accommodation. For example, the police can still write you a traffic ticket in a Walmart parking lot. Then there is the issue that in many cases Walmart doesn't own the land they are on, they lease it from someone else. Finally, do you really think Walmart is gonna say "Gee, there is this game that is bringing thousands of people a day to our stores, and we don't even have to pay for it. This is bad." Nope. I know for a fact that all the Cracker Barrel caches have permission from corporate headquarters. I'm pretty sure that was initiated by someone trying to get them banned and it backfired. There is no electrical connections under a lamppost skirt, so there is no danger or liability. Just free advertising. Why would they deny that?

Geocaching attracts all types, even losers like you. I've heard your "promises" 50 times before you ever heard of caching. The calls you claim your going to make (after you buy more minute for your phone) have already been made. A dozen times. I've seen the results of those calls. You have too, you just don't know it.

For me, it was when I was 4. Who was it that said: "If you want to see how important you really are, try ordering around another mans dog" or words to that effect. Projected impact TITB will have on Geocaching, to small to measure. He's lost, he just won't admit it yet. Link to comment

+Moore9KSUcats Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 As far as the parking lot micros at Walmart.... I doubt that they are going to worry much about those micros when they allow RV'ers to park overnight in their parking lots. That is a general permission, and it seems that those RV'ers could be in more danger than the geocachers would be! Or... is it the worry that geocachers might inadvertently damage property? The semi's that roll in night after night do more damage to the parking lots than a few geocachers could. I used to work at walmart... at one micro, at a store in our district, the store manager signed it! He always got a kick out of watching the geocachers hunt for it. Have fun making all those calls.... at a lot of the stores, Walmart leases the property.. they don't own it. Link to comment

+Morgan's Marauders Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Tomorrow morning BRIGHT and early. Thanks for the inspiration Mopar........and Keystone Them: Hello, how can I help you? Me: Hi, I just wanted to bring to your attention to a group of people that THINK they have a right to conduct a public sport on your property without your knowledge. They mess around your light poles which is kind of dangerous as might get someone injured by an electrical shock. I'm just looking out for you and wouldn't want to see you sued by these people if they get hurt on your land. Them: Thank you for bringing this to our attention, etc, etc, etc................... Next........EVERY cemetery in the yellow pages............... Have fun Guys, come on! Back off! I don't think he's kidding! CARP, he's gonna ruin it for all of us. We're sorry! We're sorry! DON'T CALL "THEM"!!! So I guess this means we'll be switching to Target then? I'll call the main offices of EVERY chain, grocery and every other store in the country if you like..........

Now THAT's funny! No, THAT is LIBEL. Insinuating someone is connected to such organizations in this day and age is UNFORGIVABLE.
