Nothing to do with caving so you can delete this or watch it. It is pretty good political stuff on warming and corruption. On Thu, Aug 4, 2016 at 4:40 PM, Jim Kennedy via Texascavers < texascavers@texascavers.com>

Indeed it is true! I just checked the message in "outlook" and presto there was Charlie's name. My apologies. AOL is evil! I am trapped in AOL Hell and have spent the last several daze trying to find my way out, but since I am even more of a Luddite than Charlie I have thus far failed to do

Mr. Weazel, it's your email client that is not showing Charlie's name in the From: The rest of us who are not using AOL (could be some others), see the name properly. Now, some email clients don't embed it properly, your's for instance, never shows who it is on the From: (at least in my gmail cli

That was Charlie Loving. I have travelled internationally with Mr. Loving on 2 of the most memorable trips of my life, especially our loosely organized jaunt to Puerto Rico in '95 or '96 where we saw the Cueva Angeles portion of the Rio Camuy system. It was a trip in both senses of the word -- t

Who travels a lot? I fail to understand why someone who wants to rattle on about whatever cannot find the time to sign their post. With the exception of Messrs. Steele, Minton, and Locklear It appears that 99% of those who post to this list fall into two categories, those who have no name

Que lastima. I'm not as old as you (two months from 68). I was on the cusp of Internet technology and am glad I have it. I have an iPhone 6 and use it constantly. Live the way you want to. I sure do. > On Aug 4, 2016, at 11:06 AM, Charles Loving via Texascavers > wrote: > > Down load an AP

Down load an AP to my phone. Oh no, I don't have one of those kinds of phones. In fact I have two phones that I never use because there is no service where I live and I am too lazy and cheap to get Skyp or some such. No one ever calls, not even my kids and there is no actual reason for anyone to c

I agree with Mark. I do not know from where Bockbeer draws his information but he continues to amaze with his never ending stories.

Re: [Texascavers] Nuevo Laredo

We cross at Nuevo laredo on the way to and from Huautla every year, sometimes at Colombia and sometimes at the main crossing in town. It hasn't been a problem, and we never see anything out of the ordinary. However, we make a point of crossing in daylight, and we don't drive at night in general.

Last night, from the comfort of my home in Irving, Texas, I watched and enjoyed the program live from Austin. I used the app Periscope. It was easy. The program was a slide show and lively narrative by Fernando Hernandez about this year's PESH (Proyecto Espeleologico Sistema Huautla) expedition

[Texascavers] sort of related to Tex-Mex caving

Do Texas cavers still pass thru the bordertown of Nuevo Laredo on their way to Bustamante ? If so, here is a travel-safety-related story: Last Sunday, there were allegedly 2 shoot-outs between an alleged group of men with assault rifles, and some group authorized by the gov't to fight crime. Th
