[GeoStL] The old days-RE: Arkansas statistics

-
I?d rather have quality than quantity.  

For some perceptive, for a year or so I had more cache hides than anyone in
the world.  When I hid my 44th, I was the top hider in the world.  I
remember thinking 500 caches would be impossible for me to ever find!  

Here is what I wrote in the description of a cache I hid on 10/2/2001:

This cache is a double milestone for me. This is my 43rd cache hid and it
ties me for first place in the world for the number of active caches (43).
It is also my 100th total cache (43 hid and 57 found). That is why I call it
Milestone Cache.
