- That cache dosnt fit the rest of his "story"  that was posted in the forum either.  Caching "partners" or  buddies, playing jokes with caches, one is already archived,  ect.. 

I pretty much have decided that some new guy  (wadcutter) has taken one or two pieces of a conversation and fabricated a dandy "story" to make a point and impress his friends.  He cant remember the names of the cachers, or the caches but when the weather clears he claims to be coming back to locate the  other 'joke" cache.  right.  And i am gonna find Noah's Ark too. (anybody wanna come?)    

It will pass, he will pass, nobody will remember anything.

you are now getting verrrry sleepy....

Hopefully, folks WILL remember the good posts about st. louis under "best caching place" thread where STL was mentioned more than once.  

I tell ya, We  just have to really watch the new guys,  no telling what they are gonna say or do!  (no offence to the new guys here of course,  just the new guys "over there")    :-)

Jim,
 
I wouldn't think he was talking about Cedar. The answer to the equation provided two correct answers but only one was logical. I don't think he was trying to mislead anyone with bad coordinates.

I received/exchanged some email from wadcutter in Mid. Dec. as a result of him logging in minutes behind us at several caches. (He was so close behind us he had our vehicle and license plate memorized, but we never saw him). Seemed like a decent fellow.
 
In one message (we were discussing a cache that is known to be 300+ ft. off - Glen you know which one I'm talking about), he made a comment that was almost verbatim to his post 2 weeks later on Dec 31 in the forums - that someone he met on the trail in the St. Louis area had told him they intentionally placed listed the coordinates of a cache in the middle of the Mississippi in order to mess with fellow geocahcers.
 
We all know if one was listed in the middle of the Mississippi it would be noticed by someone around here almost immediately, but afterwards I began to wonder if maybe the body of water was miscommunicated and the K-only cache is what I suspected it was about.
