See, I'm not sure I'd agree with that any more in light of the recent PAWB
actions from our friend in Springfield.  By requiring a permit, it seems to
me that it reinforces that the cache is legally there and not considered
"abandoned property", trash, or whatever someone might use to justify their
stealing a cache.  So if it has a permit, and the PAWB decides to steal it,
then maybe it is a stronger case legally that it could be considered theft
and legal action could be taken.  Dunno.
