I always thought a home state query that would be allowed once a week like
that would be nice to have. It seems like it would be a great idea
For Geocaching.com to setup to run each state and store on Friday Nights
Then allow the query choice of sending the resulting file out to those
Users that request it (like requesting your found query).
This would reduce the query load on their servers since they run it
Once per week instead of 3-5 queries a day for multiple users.

Actually I was thinking about that kind of issue, but what I thought
might work is a sort of cooperative effort. That is, if you need 23
queries, you get 12 guys who all want all of the IL caches, then each
one runs 2 queries on the designated night, and specify the
coordinator's address for delivery. The coordinator loads them all up
and creates the consolidated file to the other 11 guys.
No changes required. Two queries isn't probably that bad and you can
keep your other queries as is around those two. More queries and fewer
guys would work. You get the idea.
