<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> The comical part is that GC lets the
cachers do all the work, including populating the online database, and then
holds that information proprietary, and sells the output of a search script back
to the cachers who did all the work. Well, that and the untrimmed full
text of the user agreement shot to everyone's inbox. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Personally, I would use a list of 2000+ names to
create a devious puzzle cache and put some expensive electronic gear in it to
make people beat their brains out trying to solve it. But that's me.

database</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>I cannot answer that question, nor would I attempt to make a
guess. I am interested on how a list of 2000+ names would be of any use, as
the Names are not searchable for archived caches. Which means your then asking
for the 2000+ GC numbers (without the names? or with? Cause now your getting
to the information in a .LOC file which you also are not supposed to share.)
<BR><BR> I would be real interested to see who, mostly new cachers, goes
through the entire list of 2000+ archived caches in Arizona to read the
'history' when they have no information about the location of the cache to
begin with. <BR><BR> You do what you have to do, I was simply stating I
thought someone should let the new cachers know that sharing that dataset is a
violation of the usage agreement and anything done beyond that is up to
whomever. <BR><BR>Discussing it (ways to get around the terms of service
agreement) on a multi state forum is the comical part of all this.
