warefamily Posted June 27, 2007 Posted June 27, 2007 Hello, This is my first week of geocaching and I'm still trying to learning all the lingo! I see the acronym "IC" used a lot but I can't find what it means in any of the glossaries. Can someone help me out?! Thanks! The Ware Family Quote
+...The Girl Posted June 27, 2007 Posted June 27, 2007 Just guessing here ... Icky Cache? Incredibly Cruddy? Insignificant Cache? Insurmountable Conundrum? Impossible Clue? Impossibly Cute? Indefatigable Curiosity? I Can't? I Can? I Cheated? And my personal favorite ... It's Criminal!! Quote
Neos2 Posted June 27, 2007 Posted June 27, 2007 Inner City? Can you give us an example of it's use, or the GC number of a cache that uses the letters? Quote
+Wadcutter Posted June 27, 2007 Posted June 27, 2007 I see the acronym "IC" used a lot but I can't find what it means in any of the glossaries. It might help if you explain in what context it was used. Quote
+StarBrand Posted June 27, 2007 Posted June 27, 2007 Google shows a few references with Geocaching. A series of caches in King IC park Iron Chef of Geocaching used on a few description pages Iron Chef (IC) as a username. Quote

The Ware Family IC is a general internet (and BBS before that) shortcut for "I see". Likewise, OIC is "Oh, I see". Quote

+admo1972 Posted June 28, 2007 Posted June 28, 2007 I work in a hospital, and IC here is Infection Control. Perhaps someone picked up some rare virus or bacteria while caching? Quote

PriscillaBerry Posted September 1, 2011 Posted September 1, 2011 IC stands for Integrated circuit or Interaction Center, which is part of CRM and customer support. Quote
+Chief301 Posted September 1, 2011 Posted September 1, 2011 Incident Commander That's what it means in my world...it's my job title... Quote
+BlueDeuce Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 IC stands for Integrated circuit or Interaction Center, which is part of CRM and customer support. I bet you stumbled over this thread searching for references to Ichabod Crane. It happens a lot around here. Quote
+W7WT Posted September 5, 2011 Posted September 5, 2011 Integrated Circuit Over 50 years ago I was teaching Radio Shop at Freeport HS in Freeport,Illinois. At a regional conference another teacher came up to me and asked "What do you think of IC?". I went into a deep discussion about Integrated Circuits. He had a funny look on his face and said I was asking about Individualized Curriculum. Quote
+Harry Dolphin Posted September 7, 2011 Posted September 7, 2011 Then again, I found a cache, described by the CO as a D&C. Thought that was some sort of operation. Think he meant: C&D... Quote
Mr.Yuck Posted September 8, 2011 Posted September 8, 2011 Well, a 0 find 0 hide account bumped the thread for their first and only post the day after they joined to say "Integrated Circuit". I'm not saying troll or anything though. I'm going to guess Inner City when applied to Geocaching. Quote

Yeah, I guess the OP never found or hid a cache either!!! Well, at least they logged in more than once. Seeing as they haven't logged in since 2008, I'm sure they don't care what it means anymore. I will refrain from accusing people of being trolls. I surfed the listings and educated myself for several weeks before finding my first cache. I even used the word "muggle" in my very first find log. Still scratching my head at someone digging up a 3 yr. old thread for their first and only post though. Probably was Ichabod Crane.
