there's not another article, to my knowledge. My e-mail was a response
to Dick, who is still steaming about the first
article.

a quick "a friend of a friend" story...
One of
my co-workers has a friend who works for the AZ Republic. He said that there are
a few geocachers working for the newspaper who were unaware that Christine
was going to write that article. When it hit the stands, they were ready to
string her up at the nearest tree. Again, the source is two people removed, so
take it for what it's worth.

About
a year ago there was a cache placed, I believe near a radio tower in Las
Vegas The bomb squad took it out and blew it up. I figured I could count it
as a find, as I think a peace of the log floated into my
yard.
I
'spose some one can find some fault with almost any cache, but I also strongly
believe there are no malevolent cachers; except me. I'm still mad as hell about
the Christine Leonard article.

FYI
I have contacted the bomb technicians in Tempe and let them
know about our hobby. They advised me that the information is being passed
along by various bomb a technicians but it will take a bit of time for all
of the bomb squads to become aware. My advice is if you use the ammo cans,
or anything else that might be even remotely been interpreted as a possible
bomb to clearly label it on the outside as a geocache. In my opinion clear
tupperware type containers are the best in an urban environement. This
allows the bomb technician, or anyone else, to visually examine the contente
without having to break out the x-ray equipment or robots.Also think
carefully about the placement of the cache. There is one in Tempe that is
very near a school. Schools are very sensitive places and you are just
asking for trouble by inviting people near them that give the outward
appearance of loitering, or aimlessly wandering
about.WhereRWee?Ken> > From: "Team

What's also interesting about the email below is
that it was forwarded to me by Mary Estes of the State Parks Department. You
may recall from my earlier messages that Mary is in charge of the Site

Hi Everyone
Here is a short article that was in
today's Salt Lake Tribune, a new slant
on the hide and seek
game?! We also saw this on the TV news last
night.
Juanita and Ray
BOMB SQUAD CHECKS OUT
SUSPICIOUS BOX The Salt Lake City bomb squad
checked a suspicious World War I-type ammunition box at about 1550 W. 2300
North on Tuesday night. A technician at a nearby sewage treatment plant
saw a man in a pickup drop the box at the side of the road at 8 p.m. After
opening the box at 10:30 p.m., police found pictures of a dog and a
wedding and a logbook. The box was left by someone who participates in
"geocaching," a global scavenger hunt using global positioning systems to
find items, said Detective Dwayne Baird. The box was left in a field near
two oil refineries and the sewage plant. Police have yet to contact the
person who left the box.
Steve again: This was the entire story. I also found it
online at http://www.sltrib.com/2002/sep/09112002/utah/5094.htm.
