Agreed. Nice that the cave moved up in the long and deep cave lists, although they must have been using an out-of-date deep list, since at the old depth of 24 m it would have been nowhere near 65th, but rather less than 126th, the limit of the list at <http://www.utexas.edu/tmm/sponsored_sites/tss/longdeep/tssdeepcaves.htm>. Or maybe they meant 165th... The new depth of 72 m also puts them at 21st, not 14th as they claim. At least they got the length ranking right.
