[Texascavers] Definition of Old-timer

I disagree that age should be a factor. A person must show proof they are an Old-timer to receive this sacred title. Here are examples of proof, 1 ). NSS # issued before 1970. 2 ). A certificate of caving merit issued before 1975, or a photo or major article in a respected caving publication,

Re: [Texascavers] Definition of Old-timer

David, Maybe you're not an old-enough timer to remember this, but the major connections in Oaxaca didn't begin until 1980. That's when Li Nita was connected to Sotano de San Agustin, making Sistema Huautla the deepest cave in the Western Hemisphere. Several more connections in Huautla

Re: [Texascavers] TCR Registration Prices

Ellie, I'm sure you didn't foresee the barrage of emails that Old timer was going to cause. Obviously, every Old timer is suggesting criteria that will make sure they qualify. One simple solution is to change the Old timer registration to $30, and see how many still insist they qualify! (Ha)

[Texascavers] old-timer definition

Once before, I think the definition was something like had been a Texas caver before 1970. I caved in Texas in 1964, but that doesn't count, because I was just visiting for the 1964 NSS convention, when we got to cave in Indian Creek Cave and Devil's Sinkhole, neither of which has been

[Texascavers] TCR: A bargain at any price!

[Texascavers] Devil's Sinkhole R.I.P.

While Gluesenkamp won't remember it, Devil's Sinkhole did just fine without management, which always seems to mean managing cavers. And access was open even to scientists, although that cuts no mustard with me. Scientists are not a privileged class of people, and their claim to a resource
