Whadda mean? Don't you want to log a find like this person did (on a cache
that's on my watchlist):

<edited for brevity>
Just saw this virtual a few days ago, and after looking though my vacation
photos from a couple months back, I found a picture pertaining to this
virtual. I E-mailed the owner with the answers.


Not really what virtuals were intended to be, huh?
