Geocache Description:

THE CACHE IS NOT AT THE POSTED COORDINATES, BUT IS WITHIN 3 MILES.

PLEASE NOTE THAT EFFECTIVE 3/1/07 THIS CACHE HAS BEEN RELOCATED TO A NEW AREA. IF YOU COMPLETED THE FORMER VERSION OF THIS PUZZEL, BUT NOT FOUND THE CACHE, YOU ALREADY HAVE THE INFORMATION NECESSARY TO SOLVE THIS VERSION.

The actual coordinates for the cache are N37 2A.BCD W122 0E.FGH. Letters A through H are represented by the eight phrases or sentences listed below.
To obtain the coordinates for the cache, you must determine the name of the person who said the particular phrase listed below. Then, determine a 4-digit number for each of the following eight phrases:

(A) "The world will little note, nor long remember, what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here."

(B) "I am not a crook."

(C) "Mr. Watson, come here. I want to see you."

(D) "Energy is equal to mass times the square of the velocity of light."

(E) "I have a dream ...."

(F) "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for
mankind."

(G) "You take the blue pill, the story ends. You take the red pill, you stay in wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes."

(H) "Two roads diverged in a wood, and I took the one less traveled by, and that has made all the difference."

Now, calculate a 4-digit number for each of the eight passages above.

The checksum for the eight 4-digit numbers is 15,142.

Using the eight 4-digit numbers that you have calculated, select one digit from each number (counting left to right) as follows:
(A) 3rd digit
(B) 3rd digit
(C) 2nd digit
(D) 4th digit
(E) 3rd digit
(F) 4th digit
(G) 3rd digit
(H) 4th digit

Now, for the actual cache coordinates, insert (A) through (H) into N 37 2A.BCD W122 0E.FGH.

Good luck.
