My wife came up with:

WKF: Wisconsin Kid Friendly

Does that mean it is “unfriendly” towards children of other states???

So it’s a lot like kayaking for you then Mathman?… 😯

Hey OPS! I thought you never visited this thread.

Another area I work in is writing and my first novel has just been published. It will officially be released on April 21. You can check out more at http://www.publishamerica.com and type in “Rejected to Accepted” to find out more about the book. There is a $3 discount if you order before the release.

Geocaching incorporates well into my life passions.

Will you be signing copies of the book?

CONGRATULATIONS!

So what would be the quantifiable measurement? How many bodies fit into the hot tub or the volumetric measurement of the cheese vat? Hmmmm, which has more mass: Cheddar, colby, swiss or Velvetta? Hmmmm? 😀 Admission would help offset the cost of the room.

You can easily fit 4 people into the copper cheese vat.

I understand there’s a discount if you sign up before April 1.

This looks promising. I signed up to be a part of the BETA version since there isn’t a cost. The kit is supposed to arrive within 5 business days. I will let everyone know how well it really works.

Interesting feedback.

I expect that the lonely cache game will flush out the caches that need attention.

I posted the Poll question not necessarily to get everyone to comment on cache placer’s responsibilities, but to get a sense of how everyone’s response about Puzzle cache finals would jive with my sentiments on the issue.

Observations:

There is a strong sense that everyone should be responsible for their caches, and perform whatever maintenance they need when they need it. This is assumed and understood (by most).

That an infrequently visited cache does not mean a “bad” cache. Quite the contrary. An infrequently visited puzzle may be a top-notch cache, just difficult to solve and find.

If there are good caches are there, traditionals, multi’s or otherwise, and there is little or no room around them for any more caches, so be it.

At some point and in some places, specifically Appleton, we have reached cache saturation in almost all of the public parks. I understand where Hemi is coming from on this. In another year, with the prolific cache placers we have in the area, there simply will be no more room in Appleton Public Parks for any new caches. This doesn’t concern me as I am adept at working around the issue, but does concern new cache players who are just starting out and want to place a traditional in a park. They are going to be pretty quickly dissuaded from placing new caches and they may in turn, turn them off from the sport. I think this is Hemi’s larger point.

Unanswered questions:

One question I was asking, specifically, was whether or not you’d be willing to move a Puzzle cache final where the final location has no bearing on the Puzzle. For example, would you move a Puzzle final from a Park location to a more urban location if that meant opening up the spot for a traditional? In hindsight, that should have been my poll question.

Any response to that?

SURE! You may even place all puzzle Finals on my property. 😉

I recommend the Don Q Inn – virtually across the street from the park. It’s just one of those places everyone should experience at least once. Although its probably not the cheapest.

The Don-Q Inn is a great place! I have stayed there several times. It is quite interesting. My personal favorite is the cave room. I do know that there is a Super 8 nearby as well.

So, I downloaded Firefox because I was told so many times how great it was. I didn’t install it until this morning, and when I did, it worked great. It was lightning fast compared to IE.

Here’s the problem. After I shut down the computer, and then came back and restarted about 1/2 hour later, I suddenly could not connect to the internet. Nothing on my network could.

I tried uninstalling firefox to no avail. I called my ISP who said the signal is strong, but they could not read my computer or even the modem in my house from their end. I was told it was a network adapter problem.

I called GeekSquad and spent a bunch of time with them as they diagnosed the problem on the phone, for free to this point I must add. After the diagnostics they said I’d have to ahev a tech come out or bring it by the store because it looked like my operating system was damaged. Cost=$199-$399. I don’t think so. Not yet anyway. Can you say new computer for that price?

So, I’m trying to contact Firefox and can find no contact numbers for them. Can anyone find them?

Or, can anyone help?

Details:
Windows XP
Error message when I try to connect: “A connection could not be established because windows did not assign a network address”

I’ve tried repeatedly to assign a new IP address and it fails every time. I’ve tried to connect by bypassing my router and that also does not work.

Here is the one odd thing. On my router, the lights on the front recognize my PS3, and my laptop, but the light for my main computer does not light. It’s like it does not know it’s there even though the computer tells me my connection speed is 100mbps.

Any ideas?

HELP!!!

This may sound strange but might help. Do you have Norton “Go Back?” or some other software like “System Restore?” I have found this to be helpful when I have had problems. You return to a “safe” spot in your computer’s history. This has always helped me .

Mike: I am sorry to hear about your broken(?) leg. I hope all goes well in your recovery.

I have worked out my issues in Fantasy Football and the lingering pain has disappeared. I will be ready this fall and with a few free agent pickups I will again contend!
