sounds like littering to me. what ever happened to 'take only photographs,
leave only footprints'?
what if I like to tinker around on rusty old cars? am I now able to use that
rationale to leave rusty old cars in public spaces for others to find so they
can tinker too?

I do not think it's a stretch...there are tons of guardrail, street sign and
cache simply placed along roadsides and in parks that are published each day.
You seriously don't believe they all asked permission, do you...especially in
places with no existing policy? I think it's wishful thinking to believe that
80-90% ask permission for every hide that is placed.
I think the analogy stands. Suppose I am a frisbee fiend and I love the game
so much I want others to play as well. I play frisbee in parks all the time
and I leave frisbees for others to find so they can play as well...heck, I
even tell people where I leave them. Same difference. At any rate, I think you
take the analogy too literal. The point is, if you have an activity you enjoy
doing in a park that needs no permission to do, geocaching fits in the same
category as long as there are no existing rules.

I agree there are some that do not ask permissions but I think for the most
part half would be a a real stretch. I could see maybe five or ten percent
maybe.
I don't care how much it's been hashed out it's still not a good analogy. Do
you leave anything behind playing Frisbee? Not trying to argue this again.
Just saying we need a better comparison this is too far off.
