boren Posted August 15, 2002 Share Posted August 15, 2002 Front page of the San Jose Mercury news (known for being techy) has a very positive article. Pretty neat. Right beside the United going bankrupt headline. Maybe it's a slow new day?. Anyways, couldn't find the article online, but here's a picture of the front page. =) http://www.sportsflea.com/cgi-bin/snapshot/merc/front/page1a.cgi Quote Link to comment
+bradtal Posted August 15, 2002 Share Posted August 15, 2002 Finally, a good article about GeoCaching that doesn't paint us as big-footed, rare-plant crushing, environmental bulldozers. I always wondered if Jeremy notices more "hits" on the webpage after an article appears in the paper about GeoCaching. It would be an interesting "statistic" to see. Well, I hope this good article brings happiness to new, up-coming GeoCachers! I know I love this "spobby" (sport & hobby). Cache-on! Quote Link to comment

+Harrald Posted August 15, 2002 Share Posted August 15, 2002 That was a great article. Thanks for linking it. ==================================== As always, the above statements are just MHO. ==================================== Quote Link to comment
+MartyFouts Posted August 15, 2002 Share Posted August 15, 2002 It's still early evening, on the day that the article appeared, and I've already received email indicating that two different people have started geocaching as a result of the article and found caches I had placed.

+regoarrarr Posted August 16, 2002 Share Posted August 16, 2002 The reporter contacted me a bit ago about my stats website - I'm sure that's where he got his numbers. I did see that he incorrectly referred to it as score - what's he trying to do, start a flame war?!?!? Good article, but I'm just sad I didn't get my name in the paper Quote Link to comment

GeoStars Posted August 17, 2002 Share Posted August 17, 2002 Not front page but a positive article highlighting a cache of ours. I had a couple of personal complaints about the article but it presented the game quite positively and referenced this website. GeoMedic - team leader of GeoStars Quote Link to comment
