Re: [Texascavers] [SWR CAVERS] Special Presentation at Carlsbad Caverns today!

[George Veni]

Why bother to post? I thought the reasons were obvious but since asked:

* I don't have the e-mail address of everyone who might be interested in 
attending.

* There are a notable number of people on the New Mexico and Texas e-lists 
within relatively easy travel range of Carlsbad who could make it with the 
short 4-hour advance notice I gave.

* Many cavers outside of the immediate Carlsbad area travel regularly to 
Carlsbad, especially on Fridays, and they night be in the area and would miss 
announcements sent only to locals.

* I believe it is important to be inclusive, not exclusive, in getting people 
news that might interest them.

* I see no harm in sharing announcements, even if at the last minute, in case 
some might benefit from them.

In the end, the lecture went well and the room was packed. I don't know if any 
people attended due to my announcement, but I noticed several who might have.

Jeez, George. Why did you even bother to post?  Hopefully, we’ll get to hear 
more at the SWR Winter Tech.

[Texascavers] Caving vehicles

[David]

I saw the Volkwagen in the link below on the highway in Houston today, or
something very similar to it.

I think it had Mexican plates.

Somebody should get one for Walt.
