I have no complaints at all. Most Sea Aggies were at least half way in the spirit of things, and give them time. We need the young or we do not persist in any form.

I noticed a few years ago the "Aggie explosion" that began a changing of the guards if you would. While the ASS represents a growing percentage of Texas cavers, they also represent a group of cavers that are both casual and transient. I feel the large influx has eroded some of the tradition that being a Texas Caver represents. For the casual Caver they may never know what it's like to come out of a cave soaking wet on new years day with your only care being to get out of your wet muddy clothes and to get warm or to get to the one point in your cave trip where you have to cross that near sump where it would be completely pointless to get everything wet. I think we should welcome every caver with open arms....well not the best words but you understand. We all eventually cave to the greater culture which is that of the Texas Caver!!!
