Re: [tcrcooks] dessert carrier

[Texascavers] Re: Lyle Moss
I am going to try here to post something about Lyle Moss. I am certain there are lots of cavers out there who knew him much better than I did, but he was someone I deeply admired, so I want to say what I can. Lyle leaves behind 35 Facebook friends. Some are cavers: Among them were Andy Belski, Bob Montgomery, Emily McGowan of Houston, Cyndi Mosch, Evan Anderson, Peter Jones, Rockin Robby of Colorado, Steve Beckley, Kenneth Newton, Evan Gehring, and probably others. He had lots of caving friends in the Colorado Western Slope Grotto, and even attended their meetings while he was still in Houston, Texas. Also, former Houston caver, whose name I am not posting ( currently deployed on a mission in Afghanistan ).This caver was anxious to join Lyle's big dig when he got back to Colorado. My fuzzy recollection is Lyle started attending the Houston Grotto meetings in around 1997 or so.For about 3 years, he attended about 6 meetings a year. It was always exciting to see him. He was a cheerful person with a likable charm, so he had a way to make a good impression on people. He immediately started inviting people to a secret dig on his property in Glenwood Springs Colorado. The cave was a crawlway only about 150 feet, but he had hand-built mostly by himself an elaborate rail system and a mining car to haul out the dig debris. Lyle subtly implied that his idea of caving was to crawl to the end of a passage and load it with dynamite and then wait for the big boom. I don't think very many Houston cavers took him up on his generous offers. Part of the deal was that he would pilot his own plane out of Houston to Glenwood Springs, just for the opportunity to haul blast debris out of the passage. I am not sure when, but Lyle left Houston, and most of us didn't find out until years later. I tried to stay in touch with him via Facebook, but he was a busy doctor, pilot, husband, grandpa, etc, and we never got to know each other, partly because I was not active in the Houston Grotto during those years. Meaning, he probably had not idea how much I respected him. He sent me a message in December of 2009 that he was moving to Colorado, and he and his wife were going to have to raise their grand-daughter, who I presume was a toddler or young kid. I sent him an invite last year to NaturFest and he replied that he lived in cave country now, which I hope means he was too busy caving to come leave Kentucky. Below is a caving photo of Lyle that you can purchase: http://www.speleobooks.com/art/A03/12.html I believe the link below is to his wife's Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1396891386 I think the article below mentions that Lyle found some virgin passage in Lechuguilla Cave, but I have not read it yet. http://www.japaneserain.com/users/learn/news/second_50_miles.htm The point here is that caving was an important aspect to Lyle's life. In 1999, Lyle posted the following LED flashlight review on a forum: I am really pleased with my Action Light. I used it for my primary light source in Lechuguilla for an eight day trip to the Far East section and it worked extremely well. I ran it on high almost the entire time and used up about 2 1/2 lithium D's. I added a ceiling burner electric spot for only about 30 minutes the whole week for distance lighting, and only brought in 6, not 32, alkaline C cells with a great savings in weight. The more diffuse lighting is pleasant to the eyes like carbide of old, but much brighter, and the Action Light brings out the blue spectrum in a way not seen with filament lamps. Familiar formations were seen in a whole new light, bringing out their natural beauty for the first time. There are several references to him in the Rocky Mountain Caving Newsletter in the early 90's.And his name appears in several links for the following web-site: http://whatafinecave.com/Index/home.html There is a nice picture of him on rope on page 235 of the NSS News August, 1999 I will let other cavers tell more about him. In summary, Lyle was a respectable person, and an experienced caver.

Re: [tcrcooks] Menu...
Aimee, I would suggest we do without Tofu as it just ends up in the trash. Instead try this Caribbean Vegetarian dish: Colombo de Giraumon (Spicy pumpkin/ Pumpkin Curry) Ingredients 1 onion, finely sliced 1 garlic clove, crushed 2 tsp curry powder 3 cloves, crushed ½ red chile, finely chopped 1 lbs west indian pumpkin, Calabaza Squash, cut in 1 cubes 2 tomatoes, chopped 1 tbsp sultanas ¼ tsp sugar, optional 1 lemon, juiced 2 tbsp oil salt and pepper Directions Edit First, heat the oil in a heavy pan and then add the onion. Sauté until it is transparent and then add the garlic and cook that also. Next put in the curry powder, ground cloves, the chopped tomatoes, sultanas and sugar. Sprinkle the lemon juice over. Cover, and cook very gently for 30 – 40 minutes or until pumpkin is tender, stirring frequently to ensure that it does not catch. Season and serve to accompany main dishes and rice. Terry H.

Interesting video, David, but increasing the resolution to 720 won't sharpen the image.

[Texascavers] Re: Lyle Moss
I am going to try here to post something about Lyle Moss. I am certain there are lots of cavers out there who knew him much better than I did, but he was someone I deeply admired, so I want to say what I can. Lyle leaves behind 35 Facebook friends. Some are cavers: Among them were Andy Belski, Bob Montgomery, Emily McGowan of Houston, Cyndi Mosch, Evan Anderson, Peter Jones, Rockin Robby of Colorado, Steve Beckley, Kenneth Newton, Evan Gehring, and probably others. He had lots of caving friends in the Colorado Western Slope Grotto, and even attended their meetings while he was still in Houston, Texas. Also, former Houston caver, whose name I am not posting ( currently deployed on a mission in Afghanistan ).This caver was anxious to join Lyle's big dig when he got back to Colorado. My fuzzy recollection is Lyle started attending the Houston Grotto meetings in around 1997 or so.For about 3 years, he attended about 6 meetings a year. It was always exciting to see him. He was a cheerful person with a likable charm, so he had a way to make a good impression on people. He immediately started inviting people to a secret dig on his property in Glenwood Springs Colorado. The cave was a crawlway only about 150 feet, but he had hand-built mostly by himself an elaborate rail system and a mining car to haul out the dig debris. Lyle subtly implied that his idea of caving was to crawl to the end of a passage and load it with dynamite and then wait for the big boom. I don't think very many Houston cavers took him up on his generous offers. Part of the deal was that he would pilot his own plane out of Houston to Glenwood Springs, just for the opportunity to haul blast debris out of the passage. I am not sure when, but Lyle left Houston, and most of us didn't find out until years later. I tried to stay in touch with him via Facebook, but he was a busy doctor, pilot, husband, grandpa, etc, and we never got to know each other, partly because I was not active in the Houston Grotto during those years. Meaning, he probably had not idea how much I respected him. He sent me a message in December of 2009 that he was moving to Colorado, and he and his wife were going to have to raise their grand-daughter, who I presume was a toddler or young kid. I sent him an invite last year to NaturFest and he replied that he lived in cave country now, which I hope means he was too busy caving to come leave Kentucky. Below is a caving photo of Lyle that you can purchase: http://www.speleobooks.com/art/A03/12.html I believe the link below is to his wife's Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1396891386 I think the article below mentions that Lyle found some virgin passage in Lechuguilla Cave, but I have not read it yet. http://www.japaneserain.com/users/learn/news/second_50_miles.htm The point here is that caving was an important aspect to Lyle's life. In 1999, Lyle posted the following LED flashlight review on a forum: I am really pleased with my Action Light. I used it for my primary light source in Lechuguilla for an eight day trip to the Far East section and it worked extremely well. I ran it on high almost the entire time and used up about 2 1/2 lithium D's. I added a ceiling burner electric spot for only about 30 minutes the whole week for distance lighting, and only brought in 6, not 32, alkaline C cells with a great savings in weight. The more diffuse lighting is pleasant to the eyes like carbide of old, but much brighter, and the Action Light brings out the blue spectrum in a way not seen with filament lamps. Familiar formations were seen in a whole new light, bringing out their natural beauty for the first time. There are several references to him in the Rocky Mountain Caving Newsletter in the early 90's.And his name appears in several links for the following web-site: http://whatafinecave.com/Index/home.html There is a nice picture of him on rope on page 235 of the NSS News August, 1999 I will let other cavers tell more about him. In summary, Lyle was a respectable person, and an experienced caver.

Re: [tcrcooks] Menu...
Aimee, I would suggest we do without Tofu as it just ends up in the trash. Instead try this Caribbean Vegetarian dish: Colombo de Giraumon (Spicy pumpkin/ Pumpkin Curry) Ingredients 1 onion, finely sliced 1 garlic clove, crushed 2 tsp curry powder 3 cloves, crushed ½ red chile, finely chopped 1 lbs west indian pumpkin, Calabaza Squash, cut in 1 cubes 2 tomatoes, chopped 1 tbsp sultanas ¼ tsp sugar, optional 1 lemon, juiced 2 tbsp oil salt and pepper Directions Edit First, heat the oil in a heavy pan and then add the onion. Sauté until it is transparent and then add the garlic and cook that also. Next put in the curry powder, ground cloves, the chopped tomatoes, sultanas and sugar. Sprinkle the lemon juice over. Cover, and cook very gently for 30 – 40 minutes or until pumpkin is tender, stirring frequently to ensure that it does not catch. Season and serve to accompany main dishes and rice. Terry H.

RE: [Texascavers] a new slideshow about prehistoric cave art
Interesting video, David, but increasing the resolution to 720 won't sharpen the image. In fact, generally when you increase the resolution of a picture made at a lesser resolution, say 360, all you do is increase the size of each pixel which, in most cases, will blur the image.

[Texascavers] Re: Lyle Moss
I am going to try here to post something about Lyle Moss. I am certain there are lots of cavers out there who knew him much better than I did, but he was someone I deeply admired, so I want to say what I can. Lyle leaves behind 35 Facebook friends. Some are cavers: Among them were Andy Belski, Bob Montgomery, Emily McGowan of Houston, Cyndi Mosch, Evan Anderson, Peter Jones, Rockin Robby of Colorado, Steve Beckley, Kenneth Newton, Evan Gehring, and probably others. He had lots of caving friends in the Colorado Western Slope Grotto, and even attended their meetings while he was still in Houston, Texas. Also, former Houston caver, whose name I am not posting ( currently deployed on a mission in Afghanistan ).This caver was anxious to join Lyle's big dig when he got back to Colorado. My fuzzy recollection is Lyle started attending the Houston Grotto meetings in around 1997 or so.For about 3 years, he attended about 6 meetings a year. It was always exciting to see him. He was a cheerful person with a likable charm, so he had a way to make a good impression on people. He immediately started inviting people to a secret dig on his property in Glenwood Springs Colorado. The cave was a crawlway only about 150 feet, but he had hand-built mostly by himself an elaborate rail system and a mining car to haul out the dig debris. Lyle subtly implied that his idea of caving was to crawl to the end of a passage and load it with dynamite and then wait for the big boom. I don't think very many Houston cavers took him up on his generous offers. Part of the deal was that he would pilot his own plane out of Houston to Glenwood Springs, just for the opportunity to haul blast debris out of the passage. I am not sure when, but Lyle left Houston, and most of us didn't find out until years later. I tried to stay in touch with him via Facebook, but he was a busy doctor, pilot, husband, grandpa, etc, and we never got to know each other, partly because I was not active in the Houston Grotto during those years. Meaning, he probably had not idea how much I respected him. He sent me a message in December of 2009 that he was moving to Colorado, and he and his wife were going to have to raise their grand-daughter, who I presume was a toddler or young kid. I sent him an invite last year to NaturFest and he replied that he lived in cave country now, which I hope means he was too busy caving to come leave Kentucky. Below is a caving photo of Lyle that you can purchase: http://www.speleobooks.com/art/A03/12.html I believe the link below is to his wife's Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1396891386 I think the article below mentions that Lyle found some virgin passage in Lechuguilla Cave, but I have not read it yet. http://www.japaneserain.com/users/learn/news/second_50_miles.htm The point here is that caving was an important aspect to Lyle's life. In 1999, Lyle posted the following LED flashlight review on a forum: I am really pleased with my Action Light. I used it for my primary light source in Lechuguilla for an eight day trip to the Far East section and it worked extremely well. I ran it on high almost the entire time and used up about 2 1/2 lithium D's. I added a ceiling burner electric spot for only about 30 minutes the whole week for distance lighting, and only brought in 6, not 32, alkaline C cells with a great savings in weight. The more diffuse lighting is pleasant to the eyes like carbide of old, but much brighter, and the Action Light brings out the blue spectrum in a way not seen with filament lamps. Familiar formations were seen in a whole new light, bringing out their natural beauty for the first time. There are several references to him in the Rocky Mountain Caving Newsletter in the early 90's.And his name appears in several links for the following web-site: http://whatafinecave.com/Index/home.html There is a nice picture of him on rope on page 235 of the NSS News August, 1999 I will let other cavers tell more about him. In summary, Lyle was a respectable person, and an experienced caver.

Re: [tcrcooks] Menu...
Aimee, I would suggest we do without Tofu as it just ends up in the trash. Instead try this Caribbean Vegetarian dish: Colombo de Giraumon (Spicy pumpkin/ Pumpkin Curry) Ingredients 1 onion, finely sliced 1 garlic clove, crushed 2 tsp curry powder 3 cloves, crushed ½ red chile, finely chopped 1 lbs west indian pumpkin, Calabaza Squash, cut in 1 cubes 2 tomatoes, chopped 1 tbsp sultanas ¼ tsp sugar, optional 1 lemon, juiced 2 tbsp oil salt and pepper Directions Edit First, heat the oil in a heavy pan and then add the onion. Sauté until it is transparent and then add the garlic and cook that also. Next put in the curry powder, ground cloves, the chopped tomatoes, sultanas and sugar. Sprinkle the lemon juice over. Cover, and cook very gently for 30 – 40 minutes or until pumpkin is tender, stirring frequently to ensure that it does not catch. Season and serve to accompany main dishes and rice. Terry H.
