I'm sorry for the misinterpretation... maybe "serious" was a bad choice of words. I was actually referring to the amount of discomfort and pain those who attend these types of events receive... with the extreme pollen, dust, heat, dead carcasses and road kill smells, dealing with other's peoples trash of the worst sort, and the scratches, turned ankles and hives and other ailments we suffer... and yet people to show up time and time again even knowing what to expect and most having experienced it before. Reading the logs shows this type of cache is not a picnic in the park and it is not for everybody. Once again, I apologize. It was an attempt to thank those who showed up, for what they did and what they endured, not insult those who did not.

I am sorry that I was unable to miss training and drive almost 4 hours round trip to pick up trash in Phoenix again. I did not know that meant I was anything less of a cacher. I am sure most of Phoenix will drive down here when we do cleanups. So...
