Ryan, did you actually go through every individual clue or do you have a more effective search means than that? I don't want to think about how much time it would take to look at all of them!

Well, I did a search for all URLs that pointed to "www.letterboxing.org" or "letterboxing.org" but didn't have anything that came after it. Which drew up a list of not quite 60 boxes by a dozen or so people who listed the clue for the box at one of those addresses. That was the easy part!

The time consuming part was to search the LbNA website to find the URL for the actual clue and update at URL on AQ to reflect it. That took a couple of hours. A couple of boxes were listed as missing and didn't show up on LbNA at all, and for those I just removed the URL completely.
