I misspelled Swildon's Hole three times in my most recent book review
(the Wookey Hole) one. And I had the Swildon's Hole book right in
front of me. Sigh. -- Mixon
You can live down anything but a good reputation.

enough to reach the panther?

"Abeyance"? That means cessation. Try obesience: a sign of reverence or submission or shame or greeting ..

George said Jim throws a helluva hurricane party! He is ready to go back!
Glad you all had a good trip. I am enjoying being regaled with the tales.
Thanks to whichever Matt I called from Laredo that told me y'all were at the
border. Happy caving!

Glad y'all made it back safe and sound, Matt!
Speaking of tales, who would like to document this "memorable" trip for
The TEXAS CAVER?
I was thinking you could work in the word "Hurricaving" somewhere in the
title.
Of course, we would need LOTS of pictures.
Thanks!

Jerry,
We sacrificed all manner of items to Oztotl, unfortunately it was the
rain/weather god who was pissed at us.or on us mattering on your outlook.
Mark,
I'll get with the group and we'll figure it out. You will definitely get a good
article out of it.
Sheryl,
Sorry I couldn't talk
Glad you're all back, Matt. I wish I could be at the UT Grotto meeting to hear
Tone spell out the adventures. I hope somebody will write things up.

I have a pond in my backyard that has diagnosed by my favorite aquatic
biologist, Mr. Cobb, with ick. I need to find out how many gallons of water
it holds so I can figure out how much anti-ick stuff to get. Since, I am no

Hmm... fun!
I'm getting something like 750 gallons, which is:
Volume: (pi*r^2*h) * 7.46 (gallons in cubic foot) ... or am I off in
my math??
Now... how many gallons in Whirlpool Cave...? Go!

It's quite nice the assistance all provided for a caver in need of an answer.
That's the kind of off-topic use of the remailer that is quite useful and, in
my opinion, very appropriate.
The kind of reply that is NOT valuable is giving the answer as 0.0023
acre-feet, 18 barrels, 2.8
The answer to Gill's question, 100.48 cubic ft, was given in Wesley's message,
which actually was the first message posted with an answer to Sheryl's question.
The main question remaining in my mind about this little OT exercise is whether
Sheryl's pond has a uniform depth of 24" or whether 24"
So, I guess that cubic furlongs wouldn't be the most useful measure?
Darned shame.
