+Og's outfit Posted June 9, 2003 Share Posted June 9, 2003 Let alone all the topics out there now on bear attacks and personal safety and such, the average run-of-the-mill cacher might get a bit squeamish about leaving the house. Then one must consider risks of contacting SARS, West Nile Virus, and the ever present LYME Disease. Now, my friends, we face yet another attack on our health! MONKEY POX!!! May I suggest staying away from prairie dogs in the future. OH! THE HORROR!! OG Prophetically Challenged Quote Link to comment

+Dub. Posted June 9, 2003 Share Posted June 9, 2003 Don't forget killer squirells, rabid chipmunks, and the occasional mad cow--all threats to Geocachers. ________________________ I'm not saying we should kill all the stupid people in the world.

+GOT GPS? Posted June 10, 2003 Share Posted June 10, 2003 All the reasons to stay inside: Tornadoes, Lightning, Meteors, Fear of the outdoors, and to be on this messageboard all hours of the day. Theres more: Chiggers, Spiders, snakes, Vampires, and Ghosts, except the last one can visit you indoors also, and the one before that can come in through an open window. A GPS is a good thing to have, that will get us to enjoy the outdoors, even if it is to get us to the nearest hospital. ______________________________ Seriously though, here in Detroit Michigan, I have not heard much about West Nile Virus in the news, so hopefully they are eradicating the problem. Probably has been put on the back burner due to other news stories recently. I may get the Deep Woods OFF, for future warm weather caching. _____________________________________ I wonder about all the geocachers in Toronto Canada or China, how they are coping?? -------------------------------------------------- My Old posts as Geoffrey My Current Post as GOT GPS?

+TEAM 360 Posted June 10, 2003 Share Posted June 10, 2003 I bet PETA loves that pic...LOL... I can't stay indoors...too much Radon and asbestos, and some terrorist might fly a plane into my house...I guess I am gonna be dead no matter where I go, might as well be Geocaching! See ya on the trail! Quote Link to comment

Not to add to the irrational panic, but a Team Shredded Bark co-worker lost her mother recently, and the autopsy results just came back last week as West Nile. I don't know other details (age, other health complications, whatever) but West Nile is clearly back in our area. It just isn't suffering from the media frenzy of last year. Let's keep it in perspective: the odds of getting West Nile are very small, it's much more likely that I will die in a car accident while driving to a geocache. (Maybe I should walk?) West Nile isn't going to affect my geocaching, but I am certainly a little more fastidious about coating the team in DEET.

+DustyJacket Posted June 10, 2003 Share Posted June 10, 2003 The only thing worse than prairie dogs in a store, are $95 prairie dogs in a store. Wish I'd known about this when I lived in Colorado. I'd be rich! DustyJacket Not all those that wander are lost. But in my case... Quote Link to comment
