Re: [Texascavers] Texascavers: Dinosaur Cave
k and attack the lower passage, the slab would first need to be eliminated. We continued pounding on it - with some care to have an escape route - and eventually were able to lever it and chock it in a more stable situation. What all of that ended up doing for us was open up space over the top of the slab to crawl across and see what lay beyond. A quick look showed that the passage took a sharp right turn and followed the trend of the lower passage. Mio ventured in and I noticed that I could see a reflection of her light on the pool in the lower passage. There were holes in the floor. In fact, she remarked that the floor was not stable and there was a danger of falling through. Several rocks were dislodged and fell into the lower passage. About 4 meters in, the passage was blocked by flowstone, but she could see around it into a larger space. It is almost certainly the same passage that Kelsey traversed. This is a possible bypass to the lower level constriction. The new discovery is at the lowest point of the cave and the air was not very good. We will wait until winter to organize further survey trips. We left the cave happy, muddy, and tired.

It was declared defunct along with 3G (whatever the hell that is!) When I pleaded that I was a helpless old man who might need a phone for emergencies they (ATT) gave me a new smart phone. The minimum requirement was that I pre purchase $100 worth of minutes at $0.10 per minute good for one year. I keep the infernal device in my car and never touch it. Thus far I have used the phone a few times to make outgoing calls of less than one minute duration. When my plan expires next year I will have an unused balance of at least $90. Occasionally the phone rings when I’m in my car, but I have no idea how to answer it, nor can I see it clearly. Which side is which? I pick it up, claw at it, yell, and poke it with my thumbs while swerving through traffic, but nothing ever happens. So it is that I have yet to receive a phone call.

He called me on his iphone 6. I told him lots of people were trying to call him or come by. He is sort of aware, but he cannot hear his phone ring. I coached him on how to turn up the volume, and he did. The next person who sees him or talks with him on the phone, please try to coach him on how to unmute the bell. Also, change the ringtone to something really harsh, like "old phone". My guess is his phone got muted, but he doesn't know how to unmute it. Please help him do that in person if possible. There are 3 buttons on the left side. The tiny top button can get bumped off, muting the ringtone. Just flip it up so the orange does not show. Also, turn up the volume (2nd button), but I had him do that and it is max. He usually carries the phone in a pouch, but that darn button can get bumped.

How do space-based observations of Earth support the latest in climate science? Extreme weather events are constantly in the news, from devastating wildfires to destructive hurricanes. These natural disasters have tremendous impacts on our lives and economy, causing billions of dollars in damages and hundreds of deaths every year. With the growing availability of data from space-based observations of Earth, researchers are now learning to identify when some classes of extreme events (such as heat waves, drought, coastal flooding, and intense precipitation) are caused or worsened by anthropogenic climate change. Join us for a public lecture<https://scienceandentertainmentexchange.us8.list-manage.com/track/click?u=e8ed2d21703b877983dcb81b3=fecf067158=82ca0a5090> on Tuesday, March 23, 2021 at 5:30pm ET to hear from NASA Senior Climate Advisor Gavin Schmidt about Earth observations from space and their unique perspective on climate.

Re: [Texascavers] Historical Question Re: Pogo
Carl, the TSS archive is presently in boxes, preparatory for the move. Does someone have a copy of that Reunion publication that could be pdf’ed and circulated? I could do the work if i could get my hands on it k On Apr 24, 2020, at 12:59 PM, Carl Kunath mailto:carl.kun...@suddenlink.net>> wrote: What about the Pogo cartoon? That’s an obscure question and has caused several rather ill-informed conjectures. Without delving into detail, here’s the core of the story: That cartoon was a brief moment of fame for the UT cavers. When the guide book was in preparation for the first UT Grotto reunion in 1994, organizers Mona Hanna and Bill Cronenwett contacted Walt Kelly for permission to reproduce some of those cartoons in the guide book. Permission was granted with no significant strings attached. There is a copy of the 1994 guide book in the TSS archives. A photo of the 1994 reunion is on page 136 of the book 50 Years Of Texas Caving. There were two subsequent UT caver reunions in 2004 and 2015 but no guide books were prepared. There is a significant photographic record of the events. The 2004 Reunion group is pictured on page 498 of the 50 Years book. Of that group, five are known to have recently died. Although Bill Helmer was around at the time, he was not involved and the topic of his photographs is an unrelated sidebar. ===Carl Kunath From: kara posso<mailto:k.po...@hotmail.com> Sent: Friday, April 24, 2020 7:48 AM To: Cave Tex<mailto:texascavers@texascavers.com> ; searos...@gmail.com<mailto:searos...@gmail.com> Subject: [Texascavers] Historical Question Hello Everyone, Below is a message i received from a fellow through the grotto email the other day. I thought that he would have better luck solving his mystery with the help of all of you since my institutional knowledge does not go back this far. Ross is included on this email, please reply to hum or remember to hit REPLY ALL to keep him on the email chain since he is not signed up on the listserve. Also Ross, if there is anyway you can share the comic strip (or part of it) i am sure people would be interested to see! Thanks folks! Kara My name is Ross Burns, and several people on Facebook suggested that I post this question to your group.It concerns spelunking in the Austin area in the period of 1953-54. I am a fan of the old Pogo comic strips by Walt Kelly. He frequently mentions real people. events, and groups in the strip. I have been reading a recent re-issue of the strips for 1955 and 1956. In a storyline he published beginning in January of 1955, he repeatedly mentions the University of Texas Spelunking Team. Partly I know that he loved to play with words including spelunking. However the repeated mention of UT and Texas over 2 or 3 months, makes me wonder if there was a particular event that he was referring to. Some of the characters are trying to reach the team to help rescue a frog that was swallowed by Albert the alligator. So, it may have been some sort of rescue or similar event. Since Kelly wrote the strips well ahead of publication date, he probably started this storyline in November or December of 1954. I would appreciate any information that you might be able to shed on this mystery. Thank you for your time and attention.

It was an outstanding event and incredibly well organized. Also for Elaine and Rob Bissett for organizing the After Open House party and degassing. I know that many cavers drove from Austin and Houston to attend the event as well as all the cavers from the San Antonio area. It is always great to see cavers - young and old to volunteer to support caves and caving events. THANK YOU. I understand that more than 700 folks visited the cave, it was a major fund raiser which will go back into the caving community, and that there was some great outreach by many of the organizations present including the TSA, Bexar Grotto, TCMA, TSP, Master Naturalists, EAA, etc. Here is a link to an article in the San Antonio Express News you all may want to see. https://www.expressnews.com/news/local/article/Hundreds-flock-to-Robber-Baron-to-get-rare-14475886.php Make sure that you click through the photos and see the one of Mio Kitano who is covered in the Express News on a regular basis (I think she needs an agent).

Here’s a link to Cave Sim’s website: https://www.cavesim.com/. Take a look. It’s cool and interesting. CaveSim came to TCR in 2013 and 2015. It was very popular. Kids did it all day long. Many adults did it, too. I did. It’s both educational and fun. See the website. There are videos and plenty of information. Read the CaveSim story. I raised the money for CaveSim to come to TCR in 2013. I sent emails to Texas cavers I knew had solid jobs and could afford to donate $100 or less to bring something so interesting and educational about caves to Texas. Within a day or two the necessary amount of money was received or promised. I am unable to ride herd on it again this year. In two days I’m going to Washington State to get on a cruise ship as speaker for two weeks. In September I’m doing the same but from Iceland to Canada. It’s someone else’s turn to give leadership to this. Dave Jackson, creator of CaveSim, is copied herewith. He tells me that $950 of the necessary $3,200 has been raised through Texas grottos. The ASS and GHG are to take it up at their next meetings. Who would like to take the lead in raising the money for this? I’ll pledge $100 to get it started, and I’m an old retired/pensioner caver.

Re: [Texascavers] pdf of article
there’s a bunch in 50 years of tx caving. And we’re working on a longer obituary for nss news. I think Susan Souby is working on Bill Mixon’s (or was it Don broussard’s — i’m spacy). I think NSS News is where this is actually happening,. this was just because of the preserve name. And The Caves of Travis County book is almost done. William finished the text before he got really sick and got it to the point where he was collecting updates from the new crowd of diggers. I have about a montth’s work on it to do, waiting on Reddell for the rest of the Biology (which was what william would have done).

Re: [Texascavers] My "Review" of Bill Mixon
about 1990, but then he sold the ranch to a rancher that was more worried about liability. We returned a few more times. The last time was over 20 years ago. ] This post or recollections of memories is all about Bill: At all the caving events that I attended over the last 34 years ( 30 something events ), Bill Mixon was there selling very interesting caving books, mostly about explorations in remote areas of The Sierra Madres in Mexico that he had a hand in editing. I bought many of those books, and cherished them and still do. I still plan to buy some more. As you all know, Bill proofread nearly every one of them with magnifying glass and spoke bluntly of errors, and had no qualms of speaking negatively about an article if he felt it was rubbish. He edited them all before being sent to the publisher. Bill was the world-authority on cave-exploring-literature and donated his library to the cavers of Texas to be on display at the new Texas Speleological Center ( which was his 5 acre ranch ). Bill was well known in caving circles at the national level, and always wore a tuxedo-t-shirt to formal banquets to present awards to distinguished cavers. I especially recall the one in Indiana in the long mine. Bill did some real caving while in college - I think when he was living in Chicago in the mid 1960s. Feel free to expand on that. There is a vague trip report of the trip above in a 1985 issue of the "Texas Caver."

Re: [Texascavers] Cave Passage honoring William Russell
Thanks, Preston, for this. He’d love it, especially if it’s in an “overlooked” and/or great muddy section. Gary ODell tracked down that history just before WIlliam died and confirmed it with William, because he is doing Rockcastle county history right now. He and WIlliam’s brother Philip together have pieced together the Kentucky connection: 1) their dad was a geologist (prof. at Texas A University) and did some work in the area in summers, took the boys with him; and 2) Fort Campbell, Kentucky, was where william was stationed in the army before he was sent to germany — he started a cave club and when he was released he returned to the area => yielding his early bulletin. Gary’s book has a much cooler version . . . William approved. thanks all katie arens On Apr 21, 2019, at 12:07 PM, PRESTON FORSYTHE mailto:pns_...@bellsouth.net>> wrote: A fine fitting tribute from Bill, the Man of Steel, to Bill the leading expert of the local digs and caves around Austin. Bill Russell was one of the friendliest cavers in the world. He was also a good writer as I remember reading one of his cave geology papers and was knocked over. In two weeks we are documenting two new caves in western KY we have been saving for a couple of months. One has virgen cave 50 ft. from the entrance. We will name a passage for Bill Russell in his memory. Not many know it but in Bill Russell's early caving career he caved in eastern KY in the 24 mile plus Sloan Valley Cave System. This was in the 1960's. I cannot remember what pulled Bill to KY-Dr. Barr at UK? James Redell, being at UK to study under Dr. Barr? The Army? Lou Simpson? Or, Sloan's was simply one of the longest caves in the country at that time. A Kirkwood story-one afternoon Bill Russell came over to the 1307 1/2 garage where I was working. A lot of UTG caving rope was stored in the garage. Bill pointed out that some of the rope was too close to a couple of old truck batteries. I destroyed the ropes touching the batteries. Someone said I should have saved them for vehicle towing, but I thought the risk of getting them mixed up with caving rope was too much.

Re: [Texascavers] Passing of Bill Russel
Thanks, Geary He was doing just fine cognitively, thank god, after his 2010 stroke. But he broke his hip after xmas, then was in rehab, then came home for one week, and got the flu and whatever. He was almost 82, and i think he wore out after almost a decade of fighting. He did everything he wanted to do, and was pleased at where caving in Texas is at these days. thanks for the kind words katie On Mar 25, 2019, at 2:31 PM, Geary Schindel mailto:gschin...@edwardsaquifer.org>> wrote: Katie, I’m very sorry to hear of Bill’s passing. I know he has been in relatively poor health for a while. I was glad to get to meet him for the first time when I first came to Texas about 20 years ago. He was in his element and obviously a professional (I thought he might have had some groundhog in him but they don’t occur in the Hill County.) He made an incredible sustained contribution to caving in the US and Mexico and will be missed by all that new him. Thank you for all you did for him.
