Judith and Sparky - I appreciate the response and I would count seredipitous finds (SF's?).
I intended to respond to the serious question of counting letterbox types with a sly
inference to the recent flurry of posts re: bad language. I guess "my point" was
overlooked.

speedsquare, who wasn't trying to be so obtuse (hehehehahahaha)

Before you get flamed, Eli, just be careful about asking specific box questions. Contact
the placer directly.

Why would that question merit a potential flaming warning? It seemed a general interest questions to me....hey I went looking for Bubbles Blue, but found a Basket of Kittens along the way. Sure, it can be easy to misconstrue a negative on asking about specific boxes every so often, but in this case, does that idea apply?

The eggshell dancing has so many censoring factors.

Thanks for the warnign speedsquare, but I think about everything I say
and am no newbie to boards or letterboxing. I asked only for the box
they were looking for, and I know Judith is smart enough not to answer
if it would be inappropriate. But thank you for looking out for me.

Cheers,
Eli

Oh, and by psoting on this list, I am fully prepared to be flamed at
some point. I won't cry, I promse. ;)

Eli

I was thinking if someone accidentally found a mystery box and identified the location of a
regular letterbox nearby, that the placer might be sorry the general location's cover had
been identified. Nothing more. Perhaps I was too protective of Eli (sorry.) I hope to find
some letterboxes like that!

I don't know why but reading that made me laugh out loud. It's always
good to have a big brother or sister looking out for you, it's just
that I'm not used ot it being the oldest of 8.
