I don't know what I would do without Geocaching.com. I gladly pay the
meager yearly fee to get the additional perks. Before I joined the
premium membership, I didn't think much about it, but after I became a
premium member about 4 months ago, I don't know what I would do without
it. I love it that I can put the cache pages on my palm, and that they
will email me customized cache searches numerous times a week to add to
my palm. That is just awesome. I don't think that there are any premium
member only caches around here, but that is ok. The palm pilot thing is
worth it.

Eric,

I think that's pretty normal. When I look through the logs on my caches,
there's always some entries that weren't posted on GC.com. Most seem to
be
legitimate finds, not accidental, so they are trying to find them with a
GPS
or compass. They might just be concerned about having to signup on
GC.com
and getting SPAM or whatever. It gives them a chance to take the hike
and
enjoy the hunt without any feedback about how or why they should have
done
something. Keeping a low profile might be a good idea.
