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.)

 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.

 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.

Discussing it (ways to get around the terms of service agreement) on a multi
state forum is the comical part of all this. :-)
