I have FOUND that when you stick your bare arms into some of these cache locations, they come out covered in blood. I have FOUND that you can't always park near enough to the cache location. I have FOUND that wearing study footwear is better than runners that leak and you destroy 5 pairs of socks in...

I use http://www.flexihostings.net.au/home/main.php I have found them to be extremely reliable and I host 3 domains there. They are also good at responding to problem tickets and most of the time they have live help available (although I'm not surey're live in Oz). They run Australian servers, but I...

Please don't center the text. It's evil. :evil:
And I don't mean in a good way. It's very hard to read given we read from left to right and have to realign our eyes every line if it's centered.

Interesting problem you ran into. I understood most of what you explained and then go lost (but that's kind of normal). I appreciate your efforts in going to the trouble to work it all out. It makes life easier when at a quick glance you can see if it's close enough to rush to or not. Just another q...

Are you intending for the rss feed to be restricted to rss readers or can I parse the XML onto a webpage?

Um, guy turns himself in.
He turned himself in to police two days later.
Doesn't look like the GPS had anything to do with it.

Both times I gave it around 5 minutes to settle down.
Originally the reading was taken with a Garmin 38 and a EPE of 11 meters.
I now have a Garmin eTrex and I have an EPE of 4 meters.

Sorry, should have mentioned that before.
So, am I worrying for nothing or should I change it?

Let me ask a question from a newbie. I've hidden a cache which has been found by 2 and not found by 3. I checked the cache location this morning and the cache is still there. When I took the GPSr to the location this morning, I got a slight variation from the co-ords as listed at geocaching.com ie. ...
