Geocache Description:


Ah. You should know something before you get into the car!!

The coordinates above will only bring you to a rock. It's a pretty rock, I'll grant you that, but other than that... It's quite useless.

Instead, ponder this for a moment.

Ever happen to wonder how much information might be hidden in a random ten digit number?

Hmmm. Enough to say... find a cache? Coords? Hint? Everything?

Here's a number for you: 0871972433

Research it. You'll get a oddly specific common phrase.

This is your oddly specific hint for the bottom of the page.

You'll also come across a four digit date. To confirm this date: __ (+) __ (+) __ (+) __ = 23

Now add the above ten digit number to the four digit date.

Use this new ten digit number to get the actual coordinates.

Yes, you could hypothetically figure out the date even without the research. Yes, I know there are very few that can add up to the 23. So you have a one in five chance of actually getting it right, assuming that you're staying in the 20th century, which may not even be a safe bet in and by itself...

But then think about this. You would now be looking for a well hidden mini-micro with coordinates that are off, say, just enough, that NOT having the hint? Hmm... Well.

Are ya feeling lucky? : )

Feel free to e-mail me for coordinate confirmation. Your punishment? A weeks delay in my reply. : )

Please do not include any spoilers or hints in your log.

I may have to delete it and then ask you to re-post. : (
