Re: [Texascavers] NSS election -suggstion

[via Texascavers]

Vote only for those you know who will help us all. 

OK to vote only for one or two candidates.Six is silly. 

A vote in ignorance is worse than no vote at all.

Subject: [Texascavers] NSS election 

Those of you who are NSS members with an e-mail address on file will have 
received an e-mail announcement about the NSS elections, with links to 
candidates' statements and your personal electronic ballot. It will be 
mysterious to many why you are allowed to vote for up to 6 candidates, when 
only four current directors are listed as having terms expiring this year. 

The explanation is that one of the current directors listed as expiring in 2017 
is in fact a temporary appointed replacement for a director who resigned. She 
will be replaced for the remainder of the term ending in 2017 by whoever comes 
in sixth in the election. Similarly, one of the current directors shown for 
2018 has resigned, and the candidate who comes in fifth will fill that term 
ending in 2018. The four top vote-getters will fill full three-year terms 
ending in 2019. 

Note that there are only seven candidates for the six seats to be filled. If 
you vote for six, you aren't doing any one of them much good. You are permitted 
to vote for fewer than six. Voting for only a few who sound particularly good 
to you will have more effect on the outcome of the election.

I know I have relatives that go to Reynosa for dental work but of late, there 
have been gun battles between the police and the cartels that have happened 
within the last 2 weeks. I used to go when I was younger and it was safer. But 
not anymore.

Yes.It's wonderful wooded country but they are logging the hell out of it. Come 
in from the east (Acuna). Your body can cross at Boquillas now, but it is not 
set up for vehicles. 

Hell, that puts you damn near to OJ. 

Perfect for one of your great circle routes visiting the Texicans at Rock 
Springs Apr 23 NS 24. 

We captured two breeding pair of Apamado falcons in the De Camines in the 70s 
and successfully had them rear chicks in the old Centennial school house in 
Alpine, TX. They were hacked back to the wild. 

FYI Terry Bolger will be in Terlingua around the end of the month.

Since I got a nibble allow me to narrow the search. Ojinaga is a bit far  
west, better for me to cut in at Ciudad Acuna or so. 
 
Have any of you ever been to the Sierra del Carmen or thereabouts,  
especially Maderas del Carmen? Looks green and remote!

[Texascavers] Off topic Mexico advice

[via Texascavers]

The Weazel needs some dental work and can't afford to do it in  
Gringolandia. This might be an excuse to go to Mexico to catch a few snakes and 
 poke 
my nose into a few holes, so if any of y'all Texicans can recommend a south  
of the border dentist, preferably one in Nuevo Laredo or points west your  
suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Might even stop in Austin along the 
 way?
