About an hour and a half after I posted that question to the listserv 
(and also e-mailed the admins at GEOCACHING.COM) everything was back to 
normal.  And no, I hadn't been drinking anything. ;-)   My guess is, 
they (the geocaching gods) were testing their upcoming  software changes 
and have since returned them to normal.  Some of the "new" waypoint 
numbers had alphabetic characters well outside the range of hexadecimal. 
 I specifically remember a "Q" in one of them.  In fact, I have a 
printout in front of me of the '"A" Mountain Cache'  that has a waypoint 
of  GCN7!  I printed it at 1:22 PM 4/22/03.
