“Largest unexplored cave” – So how if it’s unexplored, how do they know it’s the largest? I’m surprised to see this from PBS. I went to their web site but there is very little information about this program. It doesn’t say what cave network, but my guess is somewhere in Quintana Roo. Mark

Re: [Texascavers] Shape Memory Alloy Rock Splitters (SMARS)

I had not heard of shape-memory alloys being used to split rock, but it makes sense. A related method uses an expanding clay powder that is mixed with water to form a paste and then poured into a drill hole. As it dries, it expands and breaks the rock. Disadvantages of the clay method are that

Mike Hennessy died on January 6, 2020.  He was a caver in the 1970's with the Than SWT Grotto.  Logan McNatt might have more information for your Web page.  I hadn't realized so many cavers have passed, especially in 2019. Thanks for the info.  Keep it up. Keith Heuss On Sunday, February

Greetings Cavers, Ah, sorry - I don't look at the email much. We are moving all the talks to our YouTube channel! There may be some small lag from the night they are presented until they are posted. I think the person who posts the videos is at NCRC this week, so that one hasn't been posted yet.

Re: [Texascavers] cave on ranch near leakey

thanks Andy. Jill told me that the cave was being privately explored and that it was purportedly "3 miles long and going” which made me think, if true, that cavers would know about it. She was on the ranch studying golden cheek warblers as there was habitat. I’m highly dubious of most

Re: [Texascavers] cave on ranch near leakey

Leakey is Real county. There are some caves that have been known for a long time there, names elude me at the moment. The Geology is favorable for caves. Good limestones in the Edwards section, potential confining layers in the underlying Glen Rose. The Frio and its branches are cutting into

It’s a little more complicated than that. Typical wild reservoir for many coronaviruses is bats. Genome published in The Lancet of the 2019-nCoV indicates highest homology (88%) to two bat-derived SARS-like coronaviruses, and 79% identical to the SARSCoV. Bats might be the reservoir, but it’s
