Geocache Description:

On the edge of Craig Regional Park, a bizarre ecological experiment.

So I'm in this hotel in San Diego about to steal the shampoo and conditioner bottle because I might make them into caches, and each label reads:  "PCT Post Consumer Recycled material.  Composed Primarily of pcr material, this bottle utilizes upcycling to conserve our limited resources."  At this point, I feel guilty for stealing it and interrupting the upcycling conservation process, but I keep reading.  "This bottle is recyclable and contains an additive rendering it 100% biodegradable in a variety of conditions, including landfills."  Naturally, I want to test this claim.  If you find my cache, I would appreciate a note in the log concerning the condition of the bottle.  I really need to know (if the cache lasts long enough) if that additive is going to work.  Parking (limited) is close by.  I suppose you could also ignore the nasty signs at the church--or park like I did right in front of the no parking sign near the cache.  You are in sight of some homeowner windows so please be respectful and use stealth in acquisition.  Log only.  Bring a pen.
