Geocache Description:

There is nothing to be found at the physical coordinates but everything to be understood in the numbers.
Solve the puzzle and find the cache after an easy walk.

Arguably one of the greatest and most influential authors of the 20th century, Phillip K Dick's legacy has lived and grown, mostly after he died.
Poor and under appreciated for most of his life his stories have come to life via the screen over the past few decades. So far nearly 10 have been made into films, many with unique protagonists. However many, many times the original work is disregarded, missing out on a great opportunity for a fantastic film.
To find the real PK Dick you will need to read the original stories, entering a world few leave unscathed. He started writing in the 1950's and wrote for nearly 30 years until his premature death.
This puzzle also may leave your rather head sore going back over all the clues, although all good things have a price. There is a couple of different ways to sort out this puzzle, one way would be speedy however I wouldn't recommend that, look where it got PK Dick.Enjoy.
