Gale,

Just because a person states "Nice location!" on the cache page doesn't m=
ean that the individual found the cache.  In the case of the cache that y=
ou reference, I could look at the map and determine the cache is located =
in a "nice location."

It's also possible the individual may be driving to/past the caches witho=
ut actually finding them, but is claiming them as a virtual.

I believe it's understood that a log book/sheet must be signed at the cac=
he location to claim a find on the web page (unless the cache is actually=
 a virtual and/or has other rules for claiming a find).  I have no object=
ion to a cache owner deleting an entry if there is no proof that the indi=
vidual actually found the cache.  If there is a question from a cache own=
er, an email to the individual asking to explain where and how the cache =
was found and/or asking for a description of the cache should clear up so=
me doubt.
