I once had a geocacher email me about a cache and tell me the person who owned the property the cache was on was upset about the cache being there. Funny cause I own the property :) I was nice about it... I really try to be nice first and explain. I think it is because I read so much on the geocache forum and the first things people do there is belittle and try to embarrass. Some of those regular at the forum I just want to punch in the face... oh yeah after I am nice first.
