I think Ken has hit the nail on the head. This is a game/hobby folks!
I think some of you take this WAY to seriously. We too were obsessed
with geocaching and the numbers for quite awhile, but after stepping
back a little, realized that in the whole realm of things, this
doesn't mean squat. We now enjoy going after caches that we really
"want" to pursue, instead of just going after caches to add to our
numbers. We exceeded our personal goals and realized just how
compulsive/obsessive this game can be. Of course, where we are
located right now, we probably couldn't get 20-25 caches in a day,
anyway. Geocaching is supposed to be "fun", and I think some of you
have seemed to lost sight of that. There's plenty of other things to
do out there, and maybe some of you who spend hours on the computer
everyday, should keep that in mind. The best days I ever had in
Geocaching have been the days where myself, AJ.JR, Sprocket, Highway
Havoc, Malcolm of Taylor's Tomb Raiders, RTW, and various other
cachers have taken tough hikes to beautiful places and gotten only
one cache in a day. Sharing the day with your friends in the outdoors
is what it's all about. It seems anymore that the the majority of
posts on the listserv have nothing to do with caching or discussing
geocaching, but are more of a social nature. If thats the direction
the listserv is heading ,than so be it. I've never shyed away from
expressing my opinion, and Jeff has stated how HE feels about
co-FTF's, which is only HIS opinion. I'm sure Jeff has other things
going on in his life right now, but it's really nobody elses
business. Also,Trisha has other things going on in her life right now
that are a lot more important than geocaching and I would guess she's
put things into perspective. Just let it go and move on to something
else, like the next pizza event or whatever.............

[Az-Geocaching] Wow The wonderful thing about free speech is that
it allows all sides to state
their opinions, and also to state their disagreement with the
other sides
opinions. So far I havn't seen anything that directly said to
not state
your opinion, just a lot of disagreements with what you had to
say.
Personally I couldn't give a rats ass about most of the
arguements on
here. It's a game/hobby. I've got plenty of other things to
keep me
occupied if people start taking this too seriously.
