Jake,

 While it is fun to watch you create your side of the idea, you know GS does
not allow the sharing of Pocket Queries. Instead of trying to yank something
like that when a new cacher is asking for the information, maybe it would be
best to explain to Jacque Lauderbaugh that what you are talking about is
against the terms of service agreement with groundspeak and considered a
violation of agreement.

 Jacque should have a fair and even side of it before people corrupt her. :)
