HA!
Here ya go George, all you have to do is fill the container, hide it, and
submit the page.

The cache is not at the listed co-ordinates.
The cache is at the same location as the 384th cache hidden in Arizona,
which is now archived.
That cache was archived on 5/27/2004.
Good luck!

If you don't do it.....

The comical part is that GC lets the cachers do all the work, including

and sells the output of a search script back to the cachers who did all the
work. Well, that and the untrimmed full text of the user agreement shot to
everyone's inbox.



Personally, I would use a list of 2000+ names to create a devious puzzle
cache and put some expensive electronic gear in it to make people beat their
brains out trying to solve it. But that's me.

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. :-)
