The four phases of geohashing¹.

What does it mean to be addicted to geohashing?

• The best thing about Friday is that you get the coordinates of three geohashes at once.
• If you found a way to know the future of the Dow Jones Index you would check out future geohashes before finding out how to get rich.
• One geohash isn't enough for you anymore, you start wanting more and more.
• Your non-geohashing friends never see you anymore.
• You are late for work or leave early in order to go geohashng.
• Extreme geohashing expeditions affet the quality of your work.
• You plan your day around finding out where the new geohash is.
• When the stock market plunges you wonder how it will affect today's geohash before you wonder about your investments.
• You wonder if you need to rewrite your perl implementation, in case the Dow drops below 7,000.
• When the Peeron page says "Market data is not available for 2008-09-18" and you say "Yes it is!" out loud.
• You are regularly the first person (not spambot) to edit a wiki page after the Dow opens.
• The status line of your editor shows the cursor position like "70, 31" and you wonder how to get there in time.
• You look up particularly difficult coordinates several times over the course of the day in the hope that they will magically have morphed into a set that are easier to get to.
• You have a shopping list that looks like this:

orange flags

kayak

RC Plane

duct tape

pirate costume

English/Squamish dictionary

¹On weekends, the phases Boredom, Excitement, Planning jointly form the Epic Boredom.
