[Texascavers] Twitter and ICS related

A week ago, I posted something about a Twitter thing I was trying in an effort to help people stay informed about the happenings in Kerrville on their wi-fi gadgets. So far, only 3 others have become "followers" to this. It looks like it will be a flop, but there is still a month to go. www.twit

It appears the price of gas is going to be below $ 2.80 in Kerrville and other parts of Texas during ICS. http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=aINQ5xaXHosk That was not the situation this time last summer as some of us were making plans to drive to Florida. I don't see anything in

I prefer "McLung" and will call him that from now on.  Sounds like something McDonald's would sell if some judge made them disclose the actual ingredients in their products.  "I'll have a McLung with extra petro-waste, a side of pesti-sponges, and a large cup of corn syrup with river ice"...

[Texascavers] Meals at ICS ?

George, Thank you for explaining the camping situation to us. I got a hungry caver question: How about the food and meal situation? I know there are at least 3 dinner banquets where food is included in the registration. But I do not think the breakfast, lunch and other dinners are included, al

RE: [Texascavers] camping at ICS ?

DL: I am just curious how many CaveTex readers plan to camp at the campus, and if you plan to camp all week. GV: Based on projections from the ICS registration database, I guess between 600-700 people will be camping. I know that many Texas cavers who normally would camp are staying in hotels, dor

I was only trying to compare the camping experiences of the various conventions. The comment about the tree was an effort to show that the convention was fun even though the attendance was low. Had the huge tree not been there, the campers would have scattered out all over the shadeless muddy
