I dunno... It sounds like something fun to do... I think it is quite
humorous!

Subject: [GeoStL] Bad article on Geocaching in Reader's Digest
This was in the April Reader's Digest in an article "How to Hide
Anything" They really managed to misrepresent the whole thing.
Your Most Prized Possessions
If you want a fun outdoor hiding place for your valuables without the
risk of forgetting where you hid them, use a GPS device to save the
coordinates (it's called geocaching). Looking to give your heirs some
fun after you're gone? Include the coordinates to a sentimental stash in
your will, or lead your beneficiaries on a treasure hunt by supplying a
series of coordinates to various things you've stowed in different
locations. Never hide anything too valuable, though. Plastic film
canisters, Tupperware containers, and especially ammo boxes (available
at Army-Navy stores) offer the best weather protection. Go to
geocaching.com <http://www.geocaching.com/> to learn more.
