I've never been to Ess, but this is what I found a few minutes ago:

Hopefully this is not correct.

After reading these emails I found "Ess Cave" with coordinates on Google. I 
requested directions, and was redirected to maps. I received directions, then 
followed the link to report inappropriate content. Ess Cave is now listed 
without coordinates and shows as having been changed four hours ago. I put in a 
second request for directions and this time I received the "need more 
information about destination" message.

I don't know if that was the only place a location was listed but the person I

After reading these emails I found "Ess Cave" with coordinates on Google. I 
requested directions, and was redirected to maps. I received directions, then 
followed the link to report inappropriate content. Ess Cave is now listed 
without coordinates and shows as having been changed four hours ago. I put in a 
second request for directions and this time I received the "need more 
information about destination" message.

I don't know if that was the only place a location was listed but the person I 
found attached to the cave and the coordinates had responded quickly. This 
might not be the listing Bill was referring to but it was the only one I could 
find that had a location.

might not be the listing Bill was referring to but it was the only one I could 
find that had a location. 

Lots of pictures, though…

The issue I saw is that someone made a custom google map with the cave
location and left it public.  I use the custom maps for work or caving
trips all the time.  The key is to make them private.  You can still share
the maps but your locations and what not will not show up for the public to
see.  The quickest resolution might be to find the map owner (Bill is on
it) and get them to make the map private.

Lowery, Patrick Ray and two of his friends Erik Ulrestad and Laura Liem.

A financial Report was not given because Walter was not in attendance but last 
months report was 800.79 and there have been no expenses since then.

Bill gave a report about the upcoming Amazing Maze trip for the Permian Basin 
Outdoor Club led by the PBSS. Emphasis was added regarding TCMA membership 
requirements. The PBOC meets next Tuesday and the trip will be on September 22. 
Any interested PBSS member are invited and encouraged to attend, please make

I gave a brief report about a trip to Ess Cave this past Saturday. Bill 
recommended I mention in this remailer that the gate has been compromised and 
needs to be repaired. Barry and Mike have been recommended for the job. 
Currently, the cave can be accessed by anyone who knows its location. Thanks to 
Google anyone that searches Ess Cave can find it. Bill is going to send Google 
a request that the location be removed from its map but doubts anything will 
come of it.

The TCMA reunion will be on October 20-21 at Paradise Canyon. I am tentatively 
looking at getting permits to park caves on October 27th. I also hope to get 
permits to the TCMA preserve in November after Thanksgiving.

The meeting was officially closed at 7:25 because of a commitment I had in 
Odessa at 8:00 but most everyone else stayed and ate and probably talked about 
caves.

me.

I gave a brief report about a trip to Ess Cave this past Saturday. Bill 
recommended I mention in this remailer that the gate has been compromised and 
needs to be repaired. Barry and Mike have been recommended for the job. 
Currently, the cave can be accessed by anyone who knows its location. Thanks to 
Google anyone that searches Ess Cave can find it. Bill is going to send Google 
a request that the location be removed from its map but doubts anything will 
come of it.

The TCMA reunion will be on October 20-21 at Paradise Canyon. I am tentatively 
looking at getting permits to park caves on October 27th. I also hope to get 
permits to the TCMA preserve in November after Thanksgiving.

The meeting was officially closed at 7:25 because of a commitment I had in 
Odessa at 8:00 but most everyone else stayed and ate and probably talked about 
caves.

Anyone know how to get Google to get this link off the Web?

My attempt to contact Google have gone no where.

This is what I wrote to Google in the report a problem section:
"Cave Locations should never be made public. This cave has now been damaged and 
vandalized as a result of this thoughtless action by someone and Google has 
allowed that to happen. Please remove this link at your earliest convenience."

The September Meeting of the PBSS began at 7:00pm with Bill Bentley, Tony 
Abernathy and Matthew Ormsby in attendance. We were later joined by Kerry 
Lowery, Patrick Ray and two of his friends Erik Ulrestad and Laura Liem. 

A financial Report was not given because Walter was not in attendance but last 
months report was 800.79 and there have been no expenses since then.

Bill gave a report about the upcoming Amazing Maze trip for the Permian Basin 
Outdoor Club led by the PBSS. Emphasis was added regarding TCMA membership 
requirements. The PBOC meets next Tuesday and the trip will be on September 22. 
Any interested PBSS member are invited and encouraged to attend, please make 
sure your TCMA membership is up to date. If you need directions please e-mail 
me.

Subject: [PBSS] September meeting report



[If I missed anything by all means post it to the list]



PBSS Meeting September 13, 2011

The meeting was opened at precisely 1900 (7 p.m. for the 12-hour people)

In attendance: Tony Abernathy, Bill Bentley, Walter Feaster, Koyle Knape, 
Kel Thomas, Jacqui Thomas (report)


Announcements: After determining that the following would not ruin the 
movie "Contagion" for anyone, it was announced that Bat Conservation 
International has released a statement regarding the slanderous (or is it 
libelous, when it's a movie?) treatment of bats in the movie.


Also, reminders regarding both the Fort Stanton Project week September 
24th-October 2nd, and TCR the weekend of October 15th.


We had a Treasurer's report, and the Treasurer, Bill Bentley, informed 
everyone that he will not accept a nomination for treasurer for 2012, 
going so far as to say, "And if elected, I will not serve."


Bringing us to the Election of Officers: We will be electing officers at 
our December meeting. Nominations will be accepted at the November 
meeting. Please nominate people for: President, Vice President, Secretary, 
and Treasurer.


President runs meetings and, in absence of a Secretary, keeps meeting 
notes. Vice President runs meetings in the President's absence, and could 
be in charge of programs if we chose to have regular programs. Secretary 
keeps notes or minutes writes letters, thank yous, and sends cards as 
(rarely) needed. Treasurer keeps track of our money and membership and 
Bill has a set up that makes the job fairly simple.


Reports were given on the August Amazing Maze trip and the Labor Day 
weekend Comanche Springs sensor installation/survey trip.


Brought up for discussion: We have no "members only benefits" and we have 
a long list of former members. We decided to leave things the way they are 
but Bill will add a paragraph to the remailer messages stating how to 
become a member of PBSS.


Upcoming Trips and Adventures: TCR the weekend of October 15th. ESS Cave 
the weekend of October 29th. Hallowe'en Party included.


Five Mouth Cave dig either November 13th or 20th, depending on the 
landowner's preference.

[PBSS] PBSS September meeting

2010-09-12 Thread J. LaRue Thomas

All,
Unless I am mistaken or looking at the wrong year's calendar, this Tuesday 
is already the next meeting of the Permian Basin Speleological Society! 
So...


The regularly scheduled monthly meeting of the Permian Basin Speleological 
Society will be held this Tuesday, September 14th, at 7:00 pm, in the back 
room at Murray's Deli which is located at 3211 West Wadley in Midland.


Among other caving- and cave-related topics, the 5 Mouth Cave Ranch 
landowners are hoping that we will schedule another dig for as soon as the 
weather cools.
