[Az-Geocaching] GeoCachers in the news (again)

[Brian Cluff]

That wasn't too bad this time around.  I don't really like how she
phrased:

"State stewards have connected the scavenger-hunt type game, pronounced
"geo-cashing," to recent damage at relatively unknown archaeological
sites after finding caches"

It doesn't seem to cast any doubt as to who is doing the damage, but at
least the rest of the article seem to be fairly pro-caching, and
hopefully, for the greater non-caching masses, the rest of the article
balances out that statement.

Probably my biggest complaint about the whole article is the timing.  I
begged Ms. Leonard to wait about a week so that I could actually meet up
with Rand Hubbell and discuss some of the problems that they feel exist.
That way she could have some actual facts for her article, but she
wanted to get a follow up article out right away while the last article
was still semi-fresh in the back of peoples minds, and there was no
talking her out of it.  That of course kinds shot her in the foot since
the article was published about a week and a half later than she thought
it was going to be.  Hind sight being 20/20 I wonder if she would have
waited a day or so and let me meet up with Rand.
