I saw this new one pop up this morning and after a few minutes of poking around I was clearly on to something, so I hunkered down to do the math to find the coordinates.
After collecting all the evidence, I found a method that produced some reasonable numbers, but I had some questions about some of them. Once I had something nearly complete, I sent it off to WeBeDnD for confirmation. I was just about head out the door when they responded and noted some problems in my coordinates. Oops! I fixed the problems and we made our way to the cache, not too far way.
The cache area was nice, and not a place we had seen before. For some reason Miss San Jose 2003 was there too, but she didn't appear to be geocaching. :-) Found the cache with a bit of physical effort knowing where it must be from the multiple clues in the puzzle.
This could have been one of The Rat's puzzles. It's very intriciate and complete in its theme. There are clearly some parts that I still don't get, but apparently they're not necessary to find the cache.
Thanks for the interestion puzzle. I'm definitely afflicted!
