web page.  Bernie

You don't have to talk about me as if I'm not here. :)

Actually, the event listing *does* mention the web cam saying "During this 
time, our webcam photo will be taken, so that you can log the New Town 
Webcam Cache as well, and we'll have proof of our event!." That's been there

since the beginning. I just put it in big, blue, letters at the top to 
relieve confusion.

A couple of days ago, I also posted a note to this list and added a note for

cache watchers that I had added a waypoint for the actual flash site. I just

now added big letters at the top that says that as well.

I can't change the coordinates, although I've tried many times, because the 
new coordinates are too far away from the old. I know that all of you 
1000+ers are better at this than I am, but I really am trying. Please be
patient with me.

Barbara
