Hey, here's another ghost from caching past.

 

--- Parsa

 

It's a regular haunting now- another ghost from the past here.

 

Lots going on in my life now. Getting married- and no, the future wife totally supports caching. What she doesn't support is my not finishing my masters degree, pronto. So the caching (and the offroading) has taken a break. I hope to make it out to one last desert trip of the season. Some of you may not recognize me anymore- I've been forced (by doctor, not by fiancee) to eat more healthy food and I've lost a few pounds.

Congrats on the Masters Dave. I know it's a lot of work. I was lucky to get mine before I started caching. I really need to eat healthier too. But everytime I lose a few pounds, the cacher in me finds them again!

 

OK what ghost is next? Dan-oh?

Well, we're still here! Work has had me working 10 a day, which is a drag. We planned to join everyone this weekend, but y'all decided not to come! Well, Bob & I heading out there, anyway. We'll just have to hit all of the new caches early.

Hey, When the FTF race gets tough in San Diego you can always do what HABU did... he drove 12 hours and got FTF on 3 of John's new ones in Fallon! John was so excited to see Bill's name! The caches sat for a week and we were getting bummed. Still 1 more to be "had" and 2 more to be approved. Fuel up the JEEPs and head out! r/jodi

While Habu was driving 12 hours out to the boonies to get an FTF, there was a cache (Car Wash In the Park) not far from his house that was left unfound for almost 12 hours...

There are two kinds of people in the world...those who will push an unlabeled button to see what it does and those who don't out of the fear that what it does will be bad...

 

It was one of those "I wonder what this does?" moments when I clicked on the number of posts to the San Diego List. I found out that it yields a sorted (and possibly, sordid) list of the people who've been wasting the most time on the forums.

Face it pal, we need help. The thing is that I always check the Forum threads whenever I sit down to request a PQ or to log finds and DNFs. Partly my interests in things Photoshop lead me to most of my Forum entries.

 

Actually our local threads are showing signs of becoming stale. I hate it when that happens to human discourse. I deeply suspect that Forum readers are tired of seeing my posts, after all, who could blame them? Please a few and displease as many others, mostly it's not really important.

 

Of course I do have an formal obligation to handle the Geobabe's public relations activities. In that sense our whacky "This just in ..." thread was invented.

We were out in the desert caching this weekend. Where were all of you?? Yea, yea. I know. The event was changed to next weekend.

On the way back home, going thru Ramona, came across a couple looking for Air mail. Stopped to talk to them. Come to find out, they just came from A-B, where they had wanted to place some caches. According to them, the Rangers are making A-B off-limits for geocaching. Anyone else hear about this??!?! Or is this old news?

If this becomes true, we (SDGeocachers) should meet with them and present some guidelines we Geocachers will abide by if we’re allowed to continue to hide and seek caches in the park.

 

We could show them the agreements with SDRP and even arrange a CITO event to show we care about the park. I’m sure all those flower lovers leave trash just like everyone else. (I wonder if they would ban flowers from the park)

 

It’s all politics and sometimes one has to play along.

Anyone who has listed a cache in ABDSP has gotten a Reviewer Note from Marko Ramius that reads like this:

 

Hello there. I just reviewed your new cache and it appears that it has been placed within the boundaries of the Anza Borrego Desert State Park (“ABDSP”). The following special guidelines must be met before a cache within ABDSP can be approved:

 

1. Caches must be placed within 50 feet of authorized trail.

2. No caches permitted within 200 feet of an historic or archeological site.

3. No caches permitted in, on or under any building, structure or manmade object.

4. Caches cannot be buried.

5. No cutting or modification of vegetation.

6. No modifying of geologic features, i.e., no moving rocks, hiding under rocks or creating cairns.

 

Please respond to this issue by either posting a Reviewer Note to this page or sending me an e-mail at markoramius.ro@gmail.com. If you send an e-mail, please don’t forget to include the GCxxxx code for the cache. Unless I hear from you in the next couple days, I will archive this listing to remove it from the queue. But don’t worry, I can always un-archive it once the issues have been addressed.

According to them, the Rangers are making A-B off-limits for geocaching. Anyone else hear about this??!?! Or is this old news?

 

When I did the first Anza campout, some folks decided to contact the rangers about camping arrangements for the "big geocaching event." So, needless to say it freaked the rangers out, and they wanted all sorts of bureaucratic forms filled out until I explained that it wasn't really "organized" by a sponsoring organization. It was just a group of people camping out in Blair Valley who would all split up and go caching in various areas. They said they wanted to meet with all of us in the morning before we headed out. There was an issue with a cache that had been placed in the Indian settlement in Blair valley. Nobody disagreed that it was an inappropriate place for a cache.

 

People can start out following rules, but newer people, through ignorance, can do some really dumb things to ruin it for everyone else. Up here in Daley Ranch the rangers were very unhappy with the early caches placed in the park. I finally placed some, but tried very hard to make them immediately adjacent to the trails, using camouflage rather than putting them off-trail or under piles of rocks. People won't notice a well camouflaged cache unless they are looking for it (and even that's hard sometimes). Now there are more caches in Daley Ranch, and once again some rangers are complaining about the placements. Fortunately, some of the rangers in this area are cachers now! Perhaps that's the secret, take the rangers out geocaching and get them hooked.

Those are the same requirements we had last year.

The biggest concern was the cairns. It turns out there are cairns created by Indians, and cairns created by geocachers.

We don't want the Rangers moving our rock piles just because they think they are built by Indians, do we?

Just hide an ammo can near the well established trails, and stay away from the Indians.

We are lucky they are still letting us play our game out there.

Let's try to follow Any and All guidelines they establish.

Sat afternoon at the Campout a Ranger stopped by my place to meet all the Geocachers. He just happened to be a Geocacher too (BoneRanger) He said 95% of the Rangers support Geocaching in the ABDSP and encourge it. They think it is healthy for the park(getting more people out and view the area and become aware) He said they are working with the higher ups to convince them of it. Bone Ranger was a great guy and he even let my granddaughter pet his K9. He talked with quite a few of the folks gathered. Some Rangers are great people

Hey, that's a problem I actually solved when designing cell-phone software at NeoPoiint and at HydroForce. Easy, intersection of polar hyperbolas with axis rotation and translation. Critical parameters are the signal propagation time from each of three cell nodes. Analytical geometery during second-year calculus.

 

The problem was easier at HydroForce because the application was for locating cell-phones keestered into cells of State and Federal prisons. Yes, that problem came up only after cell phones became tiny enough for keestering. The prison solution is easier because the cell phones can't roam so the three nodes are known in advance. Our reguirement was to pinpoint a cell phone down to one of three adjacent cells. From that point it is easy to conduct three cell searches and six potty-watches. Of course in multilevel cellblocks then cells below and above are in question as well as beside so the search and potty-watch routines must be expanded to cover nine cells or as many as eighteen inmates. Way better than an entire cellblock because then there's not enough staff to cover the search/watch requirement.

 

Additional problem was that inmate cell-phone calls are typically very short and placed in the wee hours for inmate-to-outside gang coordination. Critical issue for Correctional Officers targeted by gang members.

 

So, o.k., y' got that? Get your pencil out and go for it. Not much worse than a macro container placed in rip-rap.

Hey, that's a problem I actually solved when designing cell-phone software at NeoPoiint and at HydroForce. Easy, intersection of polar hyperbolas with axis rotation and translation. Critical parameters are the signal propagation time from each of three cell nodes. Analytical geometery during second-year calculus.

 

 

Oh sure Harmon, but what happens when you have a particle of preanimate matter caught in the matrix?
