I see nothing wrong with combining the two because of letterboxing I
was introduced to geocache.. it is very interesting and different.You
get to have double the fun and finds..I think that we need not to worry
about it so much and just have fun after all that is what they are all
about.

Okay I've stated my opinion once before now I'm going to expand on it
mostly because I'm tired of receiving email regarding this subject.
This fact remains above all else, if people want to create hybrid boxes
that is their business , they purchase the materials, do all the work
on it and maintain the boxes. If you don't want to be a part of it,
then don't. It's that simple. Can we please stop with the drama on this
subject and remember this is all for fun!! Promote positvity, be happy
that you can at least get out and enjoy life.

Mary, it certainly is within the possibility that someone can create a
hybrid, there are many out there and I don't see that as being the
thrust of the discussion or a problem.

I think, in the best of my ability to understand it, that many
geocachers don't like the hybrids being listed on the geocache site-
thus the idea to start another letterboxing website by Jeremy.

Since there already are a bunch of sites- Letterboxing.org and
Atlasquest to name two- why do we need another letterboxing site, and,
in particular, one by someone whose main focus is something different
(geocaching)?

Wouldn't the more logical thing be to create a lettercaching or a
geoboxing site? :o)
