I think this was a great idea on the part of the placer/clue writer
and have copied it for inclusion in my future clues (maybe edit into
the old one too.) Someone else said to mention the yahoo group
sites - which I will. Waiting to put in the letterbox itself is TOO
LATE. Newbies need to be reading before they hit the trail.
() ( ) () ( ) applause to the one who first drafted this idea.
