- It seems that mike did find a contact geocaching address and wrote to them. The PR folks at GC.com referred it back to me to make sure that I add this to my list of things to check for. There was no indication of what prompted him to write. I will probably get around to sending a "we are here to help as much as possible" note and to make sure that if he has problems or questions with anything that he can always contact me and I can take whatever the problem is. Perhaps a meeting, cache hunt and an invite to the spring picnic would be a friendly thing to do. Being that I am painfully shy and given the fact that I am not a particularly good schmoozer so I would leave that up to someone more capable. Too bad about his ill eagles. I bet is is a virus. Lots of that going around. Although it could be a blight. I had an uncle that got very sick from the chestnut tree blight once. His arms and legs got all scaley and very stiff. It was an ugly thing. If he was an eagle it would have made him very ill. Glenn JimSGreene@xxxxxxx wrote: > - > This is what happens when we get someone who is uninformed and then starts > making rules.
