In my browsing through old issues of the NSS News, I found a tabulation (June 2003) of long caves per 10,000 square miles in states. Texas doesn't look too good, as will be no surprise. With 0.76 caves over one mile in length per 10,000 square miles, it is eighteenth on the list. It is a bit worse, nineteenth, with 2.82 miles of caves over one mile in length per 10,000 square miles. Kentucky, Tennessee, West Virginia, and Hawaii take the top four spots in both lists, in different orders.--Mixon ---------------------------------------- Rules to live by: Don't.
