"Adam, wouldn't you like to have a taste of this luscious-looking apple?"

I agree with Kevin. I've been deleting this thread when it popped up once,
twice and then a third time.
The TBs weren't in the caches, they can't be logged as having been there
(unless your name is Foo Foo the Snoo).
That's my 2¢ worth.
It's a shame that they went all that distance and can only log having
visited a virtual cache, but that's what happens sometimes :-(
