Geocache Description:

Puzzle cache: do not go to the posted coordinates!

And you, Scarecrow, have the effrontery to ask for a brain, you billowing bale of bovine fodder?!

You won't need much in the way of brains to find the coordinates for this cache. Earn your Th. D. by answering these three questions:

A = Number of academy awards won by the 1939 film, The Wizard of Oz.

B = Number of persons who know how to use the slippers, according to the Wicked Witch of the West.

CD = Atomic number of the element most closely resembling the slippers (as described in the book).

Got it? Now:

From the posted latitude, subtract 0.ADB minutes.
From the posted longitude, add 0.AAC minutes.

Okay, off you go! Terrain will vary with the seasons; the rating above is for a summer hunt, so be careful of the prickly stuff! And keep an eye out for Flying Monkeys and the Wicked Witch! Hopefully you won't be humming "If I Only Had A Brain . . ."!

Congrats to FTF mudder91!
