Since Evil Fish has decided to start a flame regarding me here is my
response to his recent post:

of

This was Evil Fish original post when I decided to make my caches members
only to try and offer some limited protection from the cache thief.

> what is frustrating is that I am unable to read my logs on a open to all
cache that has been change.....

>I'm this close to paying the 30 so I can delete them myself

>and avoid such wishy washy caches in the future




So I saved him the $30.00 and honored his request.
Then he e-mailed me with the following:


>yeah ALMOST I made NO request to you to delete a find log
>I will request that you allow me to re add my find to that cache as when it
>was found by Team Evil Fish Aug 10 2002 it was a cache open the ALL.....

fee so you could delete the logs yourself. So I honored your request.

You will notice that I then asked for clarification about his statement
about wanting his log deleted and indicate I am willing to let him restore
it.

Fish: I have another life outside of geocaching and consider geocaching a
pretty minor part of it. My life does not revolve around geocaching and am a
little annoyed that you decided to attack me publicly. I am assuming that
your upset because I did not immediately allow you to repost your log. The
reason is simple I have not had the time to change it from a members cache
to a public cache which would allow you to re-post your log.

Today I returned my caches back to public access. It has nothing to do with
Evil Fish's flame towards me and his pathetic life removing around numbers
and loosing sleep over a log that he publicly stated he wanted deleted.
Geocaching is supposed to be a game and fun. If someone decides to steal my
cache it won't be the 1st time. My initial reaction to the cache thief was
to try and protect my remaining caches.

Evil Fish Since you apparently have no life other that geocaching you can
re-post your log and quit whining. I am sorry that you have decided to start
this flame and could not wait a few days for me to return my caches to
public status.
