First, Anybody hear of any good caves for purchase? WE are looking, and we
need you to look also, and let us know if you see anything. Make sure your
cave contacts know that when or IF they decide to sell, we'd like to know
and have a chance to preserve their cave. But please, be sensitive to la

Reliable sources have told me that Mexicans living in the nicer
neighborhoods of Monterrey, plan to build a giant long wall separating
the community from the poor neighborhoods.
Is that hypocritical or what?

Wierd as it sounds, Political factions in Mexico already have plans for
absorbing the state of Texas.
The possibility of a complete financial failure of the federal government is
just as real as what actually happened to the former USSR.
The fact that everything is running in a state of 'non-sustai
When it comes to primary sources of light for caving, do kitchen matches

I have been listening to a few economist throwing numbers
the last few days.
In my opinion, these guys seem to be using out of date
theories on the economy.
In my neck of the woods, I see everybody driving a $ 35,000 car, and
living in a $ 180,000 house. All their income goes to paying thos

On my last caving trip I was not planning on doing any caving at all. All
my caving gear had been loaned out.
I got talked into it and did so with a borrowed helmet and lousy light that

That's a relevant question for me, at least. Candice and I own a small cabin
