appreciated the call and that he will find out what happened and counsel the
employee. He was very happy that I had called to let them know because
that is definitely not the image they want to portray about Geocaching.
FYI, this is the Tempe location, and it sounds like they definitely want to
keep us as customers. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>Yes, I think a boycott of the store, with a call to the manager for
the reason why, would be good. I think passing the guy's name to Shadowace's
buddy would be good too.<BR><BR><B><I>Brian Casteel

everyone...I wanted to share this story with

problem with my GPS. As the guy was<BR>>> helping me, he shared his
viewpoint on geocaching. He said that he goes out<BR>>> on public lands
a lot and anytime he sees a cache there, he throws it away.<BR>>> My
first thought was shock and alarm! I went home and looked up the<BR>>>

him that it would be better if he<BR>>> contacted the owner and let them
know that he was removing their cache<BR>>> because it didn't follow the
guidelines and he blew me off and said that<BR>>> they know it's not
supposed to be there. Rather than have him sabbotage my<BR>>> GPS ;0) I
just let that go and finished the troubleshooting and left. It<BR>>>
disturbed me that he would do such a thing, though. I just thought I
would<BR>>> bring it up to see if anyone has any thoughts on what people
should do if<BR>>> they find a cache on public lands that shouldn't be
there. Thanks!<BR>>><BR>>> Crystal<BR>>>
