Why do they all have to be land hashes? What's wrong with an air hash or a geohash in the territorial waters of the region? -Robyn 03:09, 23 August 2008 (UTC) P.S. Sorry about editing while you were still working on it. I thought you were done.

No worries. And good point. I suppose they should all be within the region boundaries; however, is a mile off Vancouver still 'in British Columbia'? Doesn't feel like to me, for some reason. -Wmcduff 03:15, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

A mile off the ooast of Vancouver is not yet calf-deep in water. I'm pretty sure that's in BC. If I wade too far south the US border guards are going to be pretty sure it's in Washington State. And what about lakes and rivers? I would think that if it's in the graticule and not in international waters or in the territory of another country, it's in the region. But I can follow your rule. Just wanted to make sure you hadn't accidentally excluded some valid hashes. Or just completely fail to need to follow it, as there is no way I'll get all of BC if I can't air hash the remote graticules. -Robyn 03:26, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
