Thats the same day as the Waukesha Area Pizza Meet & Greet (starts at 3). Even if you finish the ‘Pain’ series by then you’ll probably not want to do anything else.
I’ll be saving myself up for the pizza so I’ll pass on revisiting the series.
Cachemate does not run on Pocket PCs, only Palms.
To sort a column in GPXSonar, tap on the heading of the column you want sorted.
A warm fuzzy feeling.
Cathunter (Russ) has mirrored the movie to allow you two choices. Its the same at either location. Right click on either if the other appears slow.
Right click and ‘Save as’

This text appears in the Green Bay listing for Thursday (and other dates):
The “Green Bay Challenge” brings geocachers together for a day of geocaching — using global positioning devices to find a cache hidden in a public space.The show is In Wisconsin. The listing at 11:30am for channel 10 WMVS in Milwaukee currently shows they are showing a rerun from 2 years ago, but I still have it marked in my DVR. I also have marked the same episode, broadcast at 2:30 pm Sunday on one of the high definition digital channels.
If I catch the segment, I’ll transfer it to my PC and publish it somewhere with lots of space. It probably will be a lot more fun than watching a Packer game
It is great that you want to share…. I’ll be over to your house with my siphon later.
The Dell is a Pocket PC so you have several choices.
1. GSAK, which runs on your PC sends the pages directly to the Dell or to an SD memory card if your Dell has that capability. You read the pages with the Internet Explorer that comes with the Dell.
-or-
2. Pocket queries from GC.com are saved on the Dell and are read with GPXSonar, a program that runs on your Dell (probably the easiest).
-or-
3. Do both. This is what I do, mainly because I can, but don’t really need to.
-or-
4. GPX Spinner can do what GSAK does but is probably more complicated and in less widespread use. Included for completeness.

First of all they are not ‘geocache police’; they are some of the nicest people you’d want to meet. They do a job that I would refuse to do because I already take pills for blood pressure. They spend a lot of the time they could be caching trying to find ways to approve caches.
They do this to protect an easily misunderstood activity that we all love to do. Protect caching from a misunderstanding that turns into banishment. For example, it took a lot of work to get caches back into Madison after just a few, maybe just 1; poorly placed cache resulted in the local land managers extrapolating to all caches.
Second the WGA does not and cannot visit every cache during the approval process. It is implied in the original post and on the cache page that that is a weakness in the withdrawal of approval. They rely on cachers to help protect caching. Imagine how long it would take to get a cache out if it required a WGA visit.
Third, approval is not a WGA endorsement of the cache. It is not a seal of approval. Approval means things look good. If things aren’t good, or if things change, approval can be withdrawn. The cache owner is usually the first to recognize this and take action.
I did not hunt the cache in question, but having read the logs, I’ll shoot from the hip and put one and two together and guess where it is. If I’m right, about 3 years ago there were 1 or 2 of these.
… Let’s just say it is a “grey” area in the geocache rules.
Why do we need to put caches in ‘grey’ areas? I myself like green areas, blue areas, and when the sun is right, yellow and gold areas.
Also add to this list ‘soap’. Small animals will kill (a cache) for that ‘Irish Spring Feeling’.

The list of topics does not include Pocket PCs generally, and specifically, the most important decision when getting into paperless: Palm vs Pocket PC.
