displays this may be yours. Describe and its yours.

That great article is written by UTG'S own Rae Nadler-Olenick. Great job and 
nice t-shirt.

Re: [Texascavers] Dangers of golfing

2007-11-02 Thread Robert E Burnett
Greetings All, This incident happened over 25 years ago and involved a group 
of 5 kites each with a potential lift of a couple of hundred pounds. 
Actually no wrists were broken or anything else (except my illusion of 
control) for that matter, however, severe sprains of the wrists did occur 
when I impacted the ground.. When one flies a kite that generates 1000 
pounds of lift or more one must be very careful lest one be lifted off the 
ground. These particular kites, dual line parafoils, are steerable and can 
be managed if no gusts or sudden changes in wind direction occurred. Also a 
large open area is required.
Similar kites are now used for powering inline skaters with a death wish and 
ocean kayakers and even larger boats and ships. Google them.

Sure people get killed playing Golf.  Hundreds die of heart attacks
every year out on the fairway.
Remember the movie 'Falling Down' with Michel Douglas's line: "Now
you're going to die wearing those stupid clothes!  And all I wanted to
do is walk across your golf course!"

Please Elaborate how Rune broke his wrists flying a kite!  I'm
thinking it from falling down, not from anything a kite did, right?

Re: [Texascavers] Lampazos

2007-05-23 Thread Robert E Burnett
Nico: Yes there are several indian shelter caves with pictographs on that mesa 
as well as Spanish fortifications built after the indians were defeated. 
Candela was founded in the 1600's, I think, and the indians raiding off the 
mesa were problematic. There are persons on this list that know much more about 
this than I.
