diablings are not diamond bling, I meant disablings.

I was believing that my GPS was right as I downloaded the coordinates
from my computer but lo-and-behold cds231 politely told me that if you
download a new batch of caches over the old it would not update the old
coordinates.  This was just what had happened as I found nothing out in
the woods.  Maybe that is what happened to him and maybe not.  It took a
couple of e-mails back and forth to educate me on what happened.  It all
started with my "No Find" log and cds231 calmly explaining that he had
recently had to move the cache location and for me to recheck the cache
page (not GC.com, which by the way does go to ads).  That is how I found
out my GPS was wrong and I went back and edited my log to explain my
ignorance.

And I now realize that I should have apologized to Island-Dave about it.
