Inspiration: One guy does a multi-cache, then the next guy
tries to top it. Before you know it, you need a
degree in math to get the coordinates for the
final cache.
Part of the challenge is picking a theme and then
trying to make it work.
I give a lot more credit to the guy who can find
unique hiding places or containers than the guy
who comes up with a puzzle. Puzzles have a
habit of being hard to get right the first time ;-)
