Ok, you caught me. How ironic that you post one of my logs as proof that people do learn something at virtuals. This cache in particular COULD support a real cache as there are plenty of hiding spots. The question is, SHOULD it? I think the answer is no. This is such a small town that travelling cachers would be stopped by the neighbors and/or police if they were picking around the monument looking for a container. All that aside, if virtuals had 'their own section' like benchmarks, I don't think there would be a problem with a virtual blocking a traditional cache. Benchmarks can be inches away from a container without the admins saying the 'spot' is taken. Why not do the same with virtuals?
