Re: You know you're a Geocacher when............................

You knock off work at midnight, head for home 20 minutes away and you are just about to turn into your driveway (on the dead end road) when you suddenly decide that you would rather go searching for frogs in a country town 20 km away, without a torch, in long grass when you know you suffer from hay ...

Re: "Boy Look"

Have you looked "under the rock"? Don't want to teach your grandma to suck eggs but .... I look for the things that are either not natural (lichen upside down, brown rock when everything else is grey, bark piled up higher than the surrounding) or by scanning the area the opposite way to what you nor...

Is it possible to change the publish date???

Re: Report GCA Site issues here

I think I might be going nuts!!! :-#

But you can't help with that. But maybe you can.

Why is it that the geocaching clock only has the hours between 01:01 and 23:59? What happen to the hour between 00:00 and 01:00?

It's doing my head in!! ](*,)

Re: Longest without a find

I'll have a guess.
There was a macro for GSAK written for just such a query. It is Days Since Last Found.
I asked for this macro and KaiTeam was kind enough to write it. Works very well but you need to have your GSAK databases up to date.

Re: Seven Mile Beach, Tasmania

Which zoo, nature park, etc. would be recommended to see a Tasmanian Devil and a Platypus? I don't know if you would see both in the same place (I'm waiting to be corrected here guys!) but you would see a Devil @ the Tasmanian Devil Park at Taranna (on the way to Port Arthur), Bonorong Park (Bright...

Re: *** New Site Testing - We need your help ***

A suggestion for cachers trying to be well-rounded. Could we have a D/T table of the caches in each state please? [-o< One that shows us the number of each difficulty/terrain variations of caches, sorta like the D/T tables you can find in peoples profiles. As this would be a fairly static table, it ...

Re: GCA Server Stats for October 2009

We have some at our sites where I work and I was shocked when I saw one rebooting.
Since then, I've seen another also boot.

They were running Windows 98!
