When trying to make a pocket query for night caches, I find that a query with only 'Flashlight required' or 'Recommended at night' produces more than just night caches. When I use 'Flashlight required' and'Recommended at night' I only get 4 true night caches....

I would like to graciously request all night cache owners to use both attributes to help narrow night cahes only....
Thanks

Ok, Why is that not a good idea???? Anyone?? I like night caches, but don't have time to read every cache page to find them all...This woul narrow it down. We can start a new convention for night caches .... Question

On my night cache I have used both attributes. However, when I do a query, I always do "flashlight" OR "Recommended at Night." Then I have to search through and eliminate the ones that are not really night caches. Cool

you're right, Pronto....I was just hoping to get a consistent set of criteria at least from the GOWT area....it might narrow the query if it was widely accepted! You are right that an 'OR' would give us a subset, but still lots of weeding! I just wanted to promote the 'AND' idea.
Idea
