Mike Moore, before he passed on, scanned and converted almost every Texas caver from 1974 to 1999 into html?including a nifty little display engine.? It was considered for mass member and public distribution but it was decided that copyright issues needed to be solved first. Also, some of the authors felt pretty strongly that their articles were not appropriate for public domain release.? Those issues would still need to be addressed.

Barack Obama would be proud to know that someone out there in CaveTex land has volunteered to scan many, many editions of old Texas Cavers' and get them into a compact, easy-to-read format on a CD to be distributed to members.? ? Wait, you say that no one has offered to do this, yet so many people would like to see it done? I think I see a great community service opportunity waiting for volunteers...and I've seen so much evidence that there are plenty of people out there with ample time to spend expounding on the issue.? ?
