Yeah, unfortunatly, unless the actualy coordinates of the cache are in
arizona, then it's not going to be in the book... at least to start
with.  I might be convinced to write something that will go out and grab
a few extra caches.  We'll have to see.  It would have to come after the
update to the crawler that I want to do that will cause it to be much
much nicer to the official site, plus it might have the side effect of
letting us cover the whole US and maybe world with the same amount of
crawling that we are doing now... we'll have to see.  I want to be as
nice as possible to the official site since other than our charter
membership, we haven't paid him any money.   ..but I also like to think
that we are probably offloading more bandwidth that we are sucking,
while providing services that he just can't touch or hasn't gotten
around to doing yet.

I think the palm stuff on the official site might be slow to come if at
all. It takes a decent amount of horse power to create a book and if you
had to do a whole worlds worth on the fly it would quickly get out of
hand.  I would bet that it would have to be a charter membership thing
for sure.
