Indeed it is true! I just checked the message in "outlook" and presto there was Charlie's name. My apologies. AOL is evil! I am trapped in AOL Hell and have spent the last several daze trying to find my way out, but since I am even more of a Luddite than Charlie I have thus far failed to do so. The main issue is trying to rescue the many stories with embedded images that I have composed and stored on AOL. Their software is proprietary so I can't simply copy the stories with the images and formatting intact. Eventually I hope to migrate everything to either a blog or a dedicated website since I long ago gave up any hope of actually publishing a book. Sorry for being so grumpy!

Mr. Weazel, it's your email client that is not showing Charlie's name in the From: The rest of us who are not using AOL (could be some others), see the name properly. Now, some email clients don't embed it properly, your's for instance, never shows who it is on the From: (at least in my gmail client).

I fail to understand why someone who wants to rattle on about whatever cannot find the time to sign their post. With the exception of Messrs. Steele, Minton, and Locklear It appears that 99% of those who post to this list fall into two categories, those who have no name, and those whose name includes a list of achievements and honorifics plus a wrongly attributed aphorism and perhaps some keyboard generated "art" if you wish to so abuse the term. A recognizable pseudonym will do, such as... Sleazeweazel ps: Just to be a jerk I have purposefully failed to truncate the extraneous information in this thread. It is so much easier to just hit 'reply'. That way I get to waste your time rather than my own. In a message dated 8/4/2016 12:31:25 P.M.

Africa, South America, Central America, Europe and all those places. Spent years in Colombia and Peru. Got stuck in Argentina during the Malvinas War. Lived in Real de Catorce for five years all in the era before technology and never thought or missed it. I guess since I don't use it I don't miss it. I still like steel nibbled pens that you dip into an ink well to do art. Something about that makes a connection, you can't make a mistake. Sent faxes from Talara, Peru in those days. Flew in Portuguese helicopters in Angola and Italian ones in Zaire. It was all good fun and devious. Did somethings in Africa with the French military mission as a liaison person, since I was raised with that as my first language back when I was going to grade school in Switzerland.

Oh no, I don't have one of those kinds of phones. In fact I have two phones that I never use because there is no service where I live and I am too lazy and cheap to get Skyp or some such. No one ever calls, not even my kids and there is no actual reason for anyone to call, since I never do anything or go anywhere. I just have a clunky c omputer. So I guess that is another technological wash for the ludite.

I used the app Periscope. It was easy. The program was a slide show and lively narrative by Fernando Hernandez about this year's PESH (Proyecto Espeleologico Sistema Huautla) expedition. This was Fernando's first trip to Huautla. His perspective as a Mexican citizen, excellent caver, fluent in English, and culturally sensitive, made for a very interesting talk. My understanding is that the video of Fernando's talk will be available at Periscope for a short amount of time. One thing that Fernando did not mention is that he was the winner of the PESH 2016 Expedition "Rookie of the Year" award. He hustled underground and was a pleasure to be around.
