Note #1: This puzzle cache is NOT hidden at the posted coordinates. You'll need to use the information below in order to determine the true location.
Note #2: Due to an overly-territorial muggle, this cache had to be moved to a nearby location...this has led us to make numerous alterations to the puzzle herein, so if you've printed this cache out in the past, make sure to find all the many subtle changes. To calculate the NEW hiding spot, work out the puzzle and then add/subtract the amount that the initial starting coordinates have changed to the ACTUAL coordinates that the puzzle's solution will give you...that will bring you to the cache's new hiding spot. Do note, though, that the muggle is still nearby and outside often, so be discrete!!
In May 2002, the United States Department of Defense decided two “turn off” something called Selective Availability, paving the way for the greater GPS accuracy needed for geocaching to become a reality.
In the 1986 animated movie, "An American Tail", the character of Fievel (who had an interesting name) shared the same name as Steven Spielberg's brother.

The Berlin Wall separated East Berlin & West Berlin for 35 years, from the day construction began on August 13, 1961.

When a couple celebrates the copper anniversary, that couple has

Soon after Selective Availability was turned off, a GPS enthusiast named David Ulmer decided to hide two buckets of trinkets in the woods in Portland, Oregon (where Spider-man once lived with his wife Mary Jane) and recorded a GPS coordinate. He then posted this coordinate on the internet & challenged others to find it. Days later, someone did, and Geocaching was born.
In a coordinate plane, if you walked the distance from (-3, 0) to (2, 5) to (6, 0) to (11, 6) to (17, -1), it would kinda look like an "C", which, coincidentally, is a Roman Numeral.
When typed into a calculator & then flipped upside-down, the number "7736" looks like the word "BELL", albeit without every single letter being capitalized.
In the year 2006, Marvel Comics insulted readers when they forced Peter Parker (Spider-man) and his wife, Mary Jane Watson-Parker, to make a deal with Marvel's version of the devil, "Mephisto", to erase their marriage from existence in order to appease the desires of Marvel's current editor-in-chief. Hopefully, people will boycott Marvel Comics & Spider-man until this repulsive move is undone.
