n general people do not actually "need" a rescue in Airman's. What they need is to get motivated to move themselves out of the cave. Years ago some college aged girl got back in there and stopped crawling, citing exhaustion. Did she expect someone would come lather her up with suds and slider her out? When push came to shove, she got a going under her own power and exited the cave. I think that was the illustrious fire department callout with the drills and everything.
Time and time again, it is shown that people get themselves out of Airman's without any real assistance. They may come out later than planned, but that is the nature of any true wilderness experience. Who has come back from a long hike, lost for hours without the Man getting the rescue call? Happens all of the time. But if it is in a cave, there seems to be some dread to being late. Tell the Press not to worry. The cave is finite. Everyone in the past has returned from it. Most were simply tired. -Stich _______________________________________________ Join Excite! - http://www.excite.com The most personalized portal on the Web! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Visit our website: http://texascavers.com To unsubscribe, e-mail: texascavers-unsubscr...@texascavers.com For additional commands, e-mail: texascavers-h...@texascavers.com
