One advantage of Trig Points, virtuals, locationless etc. is that Parks & Wildlife services and City Councils can't go in and remove them.

Sound is a form of energy. A tree gets energy from the sun in the form of light and heat and converts it through photosynthesis into growth and the ability to stand against the force of gravity. As we all know, energy is neither created nor destroyed. So when a tree falls, it releases kinetic energy...

I think I can see a join near the middle and thru the lump

How many geocachers does it take to change a lightbulb? A: It doesn't matter, it's not about the numbers!

Aha!! Thanks Craigrat, got it working now.

Can someone with more computer savvy than me help? I have set up the GSAK program on a new computer, and transfered my old settings to GSAK on my new computer. Everything works OK... EXCEPT, when I try to use the ipod_notes_multi Macro to transfer cache data from GSAK to my ipod. I'm now getting a m...

Did someone say that the disease wasn't transmitted by pigs? Apparently not in Egypt! -> http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2009/05/03/2559200.htm :shock: Methinks the Egyptian government has another agenda in removing their whole pig population, justified by the swine flu 'pandemic'. I'm just not ...

Hi UMP, I didn't get your reply. Must be something wrong with my email setup or something. I've received no messages via GCA or direct emails from you. It's always possible I'm not doing something I should be to access your reply though!! :( Thanks for your advice - very clear. :) I'll place a new c...

I am helping a fellow cacher get his cache series up and running again and am in the process of adopting them. I have got all except one into shape, but the one missing had been archived.
