Mr. Mixon just loves to poke at the scientists on this list
because he knows he'll get a reaction (especially from Diana!).
I've enjoyed the explanations and comments from her and others.
The Texas caver family includes quite a few scientists in a
variety of field
Donna and I went into Cueva de Carizal years ago I think in the early 80’s. We
both wore respirators and did not get sick and we were in the stream and upper
passages. Later we were both tested and showed a resistance to histo. But
again we had been in many bat caves. Since that time there h
just a few months ago a boy scout troop visited the cave and many kids got
histo..

Gill thank you.
The situation is this.. The Secretary of Tourism create a project to use
the cave for tourism, they tender a project of ecotourism and
sustainability in the cave. A constructor win the tender.
The cave have an incident in the month of march, 25 people (teachers and
students scout

Moni--I would suggest that you not visit Cueva de Carrizal and not take or send
anyone else there. There have been sufficient incidents of people getting
histoplasmosis to warn them there is a danger of contacting a lung fungus. Only
people with a known or demonstrated resistance to histo shoul
You're so cute.

Oddly enough, this afternoon I received a form that I need to fill out in order
to have a paper reviewed in eLife, an Open Access journal.
The form is entitled, "eLife’s transparent reporting form.”
It consists of detailed questions about how the data was collected, analyzed
and any statistical
As a scientist, I generally agree with the need for multiple "authors",
including people who had nothing to do with actually writing an article.
However it does seem to have gotten a bit out of control and now people
are listed as authors who should more correctly be listed in the
Acknowledgments
That said, it is often the case that the relative value of an article is
inversely proportional to the number of authors cited. Given the current frenzy
to publish and be recognized for Pd work, it would not be surprising if the
number of authors exceeded the length of the article.

The Park has had its good times and the bad. Its recovering from BAD! The new
Resource person is a hoot and howler to work with. And he is more caver
friendly that the last bunch. There are 50 back country caves that have never
been surveyed and he wants to get that done. And maybe even resurve

The entire incident is recorded in detailed time log, complete with newspaper
articles in the November 1971 Texas Caver.The boys that drowned were Chris
Cleveland 18, and Bruce Stone 17, both from Houston, Texas.
Yep, I still have some caving stuff like early Texas Cavers. By the way, does

Diana,
Very well said, I was thinking of replying also but you hit the nail on the
head. Most research these days are a collaboration between many scientists and
laboratories. I think the best example I've seen is some of the Super Collider
work that might have 150 authors for a paper.

Let me clarify what constitutes authorship on a scientific article.
It does not necessarily mean that a person wrote one of the paragraphs. In
fact, in the future we may have artificial intelligence to thank for writing
much of the routine text in our articles and technical manuals.
It DOES mea
Wow! Fourteen alleged authors for an article with eight paragraphs. How many of
those people do you think were really authors, i.e., writers? How many of them
were just bottle washers? -- Mixon
Always forgive your enemies after they are hanged.

A couple of people, scouts I think, swam the wrong way in the syphon and
drowned. It was back when I was caving a lot. Raines and I swam the syphon
with a Rayovac flashlight and two canteen belts latched together. The
flashlight lasted just long enough for us to get back out. Really dumb.
On Fri,
