[Holmes, Richard]

OK; I missed it! When you recenter, it also sorts.

SBT,

Dick

Brian,

In "Cache Status/Planning" I cannot sort on "Terrain", which I infer is an
intended function. Also, it would be handy to sort on "Distance in Miles",
which I assume is not an intended function.

Thanks for all the good work you've done on the site,

This is just outright false.  Geocaching is HIGHLY encouraged on state trust

land, as long as you have a permit and don't place a cache on an archeology 
site.  With all the agencies that I talked to, this is also the one that 
wasn't that worried about us staying on the trails at all costs.
The only part she got right was the part about the coords being placed at
the 
location of any confiscated cache, and thats only going to happen if the 
cache is a problem.
The state trust land people HAVE to make a proffit with the land that the
govt 
has put them in charge of.  That was the condition that our govt gave them.

They aren't going to run a very large chunk of mostly environmentally 
conscious, paying customers off their land, thats not good business
practice.

In other words, if we can float and leave NO foot prints, only put cache in 
the middle of the trail, in plain sight, in the most boring spot on the 
planet.  All the while floating and making sure that an indian has never
ever 
set foot within a mile of where we are, and also making sure that nobody
else 
in the universe that isn't a geocacher goes anywhere near any geocaches so 
that we don't get the blame for their foot prints and twinky wrappers or 
anything else they might do that would normally be out of our control.... 
then everything should be just hunky dory, and she will leave us alone and
go 
back to keeping secret her secret archeology sites that are available on
maps 
dating back 35+ years and available over the counter from any map store, or 
in more mapping software that has labels for places.

...We've talked to her, and I know this appears to be written before the 
meeting, but I guarantee that she hasn't changed her attitude a single bit.

I fear we will have more to hear from Shelly Rasmussen.

Please send any follow up's our way, I would be very interested to see what 
she says.
