I contacted the owner of the so called "cache n' stash" website, and he just
considers this to be a new twist on the game and claims that it is not
theft. I told him if I took his car, drove it three hundred miles away on
vacation and left a note in his parking space that he can find his car at
"X" location, would he consider his car to be stolen. No reply....

Well here is just a quick report.
After a flurry of emails I think we traded about 15 or
20 last night, the ball is now in their court. They
are looking at the State Park guidelines as a template
for their own policy and there will a permit required.
I have however urged them before they write any
guidelines to try out caching for themselves, to read
some of the posts that have been written on Rolla and
other caches, and to contact Mike up in JC for a Parks
and a geocacher perspective. I also urged them to be
on the cautious side when it comes to restrictions by
reminding them that it is much easier to tighten
regulations if need be than it is to loosen them up.
I am hoping they will take me up on a cache hunt here
in Rolla so that I can talk with them in person and
show them how much fun it can be. But I am as always
cautiously optimistic :D
By the way have any of the rest of you been following
the controversy that is going on in the Springfield
area? They have a cache thief down there who has set
up his own site and then he steals someones cache and
rehides it and posts the coords on HIS web site which
is his way of getting back at gc.com for snubbing him
I guess. Anyway it is actually scary in that I think
he is recruiting a bunch of underage or overage
juevinile delinquents who are all looking at stealing
others caches and rehiding them. I don't know about
you but I think this is something that might start
spreading until one or two of them are caught and
jailed!
