I've said for a long time that it would only take one psycho to put a 
bomb or something really nasty (hydrofloic acid?) in a cache to kill the 
whole sport, but I have a hard time thinking that a terrorist would be 
stupid enough to put a private message into a public cache.  It seems 
more likely that they would have own network of terror caches setup so 
they they don't have to worry about someone stumbleing across their 
stash accidentally, and finding their coppies of notes, and book 
entitles "How to grow anthrax using comming household items.", or "So, 
you wanna fly and don't need to land"
