Geocache Description:

Cache is NOT located at the above location, but is nominally within 3 miles of it.
You will need to decypher the location.

Some may have their cute linguistic codes. We admit, computer languages are basically the only languages we know. So we give you:

If you must resist, just sit and meditate and make the sound "OMMMMMMMMM", but basically, have tolerance - at least 10%.

You may be tempted by "Bad Boys..." but that is just a movie so you should resist, nominally.

We get everything we need, basically, from Area 31B which just happens to be rather near this cache. It supplies our secret lab. BTW, the cache is not up the creek, or in the dumps, and we never exercise or go to parks (wastes heartbeats). Photonics and electronics rule! Pocket protectors- yes!

Oh-my, almost forgot the location. Now, were are my glasses? Here we are.

Nominally, a sort of mirror image of the location would be:

deregnaronworbyargkcalbderdernworbkcalbneergwolleyneergderteloivegnarO

(use your HP serial first-in, last out converter, bit slice as required, nerds know the rest)

No digit sum checks, they are for math majors, nominally.

Nerds rule, slide rule. I squared R, Impede or resist. Basically..(or is it nominally?)... hummm.

Signed
the nerds
