Geocache Description:

The cache is a spacious Lock-n-Lock container. Copious capacity for most TBs and trade items. Original wares include Ca,Fe,Ni,Cu,Cl,S,Al,and Ne. The cache is also appointed with a ledger and utensil so as to inscribe one's sobriquet.

I am soliciting admittance to graduate schools and to that end have been absorbed in preparation for the Graduate Record Exam. I have emphatically determined that all geocachers should experience the same duress and perchance become as erudite and perspicacious as I. In that context you may seek a return to High School for illumination regarding these equations thereby discovering the co-ordinates of this cache. It would be quite adventitious if you find this not too grandiloquent or loquacious. Most will be manageable equations, some may be more enigmatic or noisome. But I presage full success so as to avoid a circuitous discourse.

By solving the equations so offered you will obtain the goal to which you aspire.


N 33 AB.CDE, W 079 FG.HIJ,

[(Re-W)H](He+H)=A,

(Pb-Ac)(Ag-Cd)=B,

(S/Be)+(Tl/F)-(Nd/Ne)=C,

[(As x Co)H]-(Cl x Sn)-(Li x Na)=D,

(B/H - Li/H)H + Dy/Ti=E


( Rg-Xe)-(Ga-Na)-(Zn+H)-(Be+He)=F

[(P x Li)-(Sn/Ne + Zr/Be)]/P=G

[(Sc x Li)/N]-[(At-Re)/He]-Li=H

Ds/Ti - Xe/Co=I

[(Fm x C)/Sn]+(Po/Mo)-(Th/Ne)=J

I apologize to any who have tried to solve the puzzle with two of the equations slightly off. It doesn't matter how many times they are checked - I swear something always slips though. Any more problems please let me know.
