Geocache Description:

DON'T GO TO THE LISTED COORDINATES. YOU MUST FIRST SOLVE THE PUZZLE!


This is not just another LewM puzzle cache.  We know that a few people have complained about some of our past puzzle caches, but those were just to get you ready for this one. We used several of the more seasoned cachers in our puzzle, so that may help some more than others. Just hope you are in the right group!


You will find the cache at 45* AB.CDE , 108* FG.HIJ.  Now, for the hard part - you will have to find the answers to these questions to complete your quest.




A.    Number of fingers on Arliecon's right hand (hint - don't count his thumb or the fingers on his left hand).
B.    If there were a bigger number on a dice what would the next number be? No more hints.
C.    B minus A.  The use of calculators is permissible.
D.    Lakeman and Tagalong have four hands (two hands each).  If they had twice as many how many would they have all together?
E.    Rscout79's age plus 4 minus his age. (I'll bet sberrybump is glad I didn't pick her!)


F.    Red Hot Mama sometimes shortens her name to just RHM.  How many letters are in the short version?
G.    Z-Cat has three cats.  He got his handle from one of them.  How many cats does he have?
H.    If you were going to do 10 caches one day, but you DNFed on two of them how many smilelys did you get?
I.      A CITO was held and only a half dozen cachers showed up and used just one bag apiece.  How many bags would be needed?
J.    Elkhunter and Mickey Mouse did a cache a day for six days straight.  How many caches did they get to log?



I have never been real big on giving hints to puzzle caches, but I think I may make an exception for this one - BUT not until a few people have found it.
If you think you have solved the puzzle you can email me and I will be glad to let you know how you are doing.  

Maybe.

Congratulations to Lakeman for the FTF!
and to Truckin Bozo from winning the clue prize!
