[Texascavers] Jewel Cave article
Thanks, Dwight, and especially Lee for the tiny URL that actually works. But I wouldn't call it a nice article on Jewel Cave. Any article that quotes Mike Wiles about geology pretty much automatically isn't. -- Mixon Work is the curse of the drinking class.

[SWR] Follow-up on the NGS Film: Mystery Caves Of Guangxi
Follow-up on the NGS Film: Mystery Caves Of Guangxi http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wiYn-DeQjL8 For additional maps, cross-sections, and photographs of the spectacular Leye Karst, including Mawangdong Cave, Bandong Tienkeng, and the through-cave photographed in this movie, see page 3 of the Leye-Fengshan Geopark, Sanmenhai Karst Tourguide http://www.naturalarches.org/files/LeyeFengshanGeoparkChina.pdf Cavers will find this additional data interesting. Videographers will better appreciate the skill of those manning the camera and doing the editing. At the time this film was shot, the Leye-Fengshan Geopark was well-developed for tourism. It must have been a real challenge NOT to show more of the tourist trails, stairs, guardrails, roads, and other developments in the finished film. It also appears that the (mysterious) origin of the huge collapse dolines featured in the film was well explained in English-language interpretive signs and brochures to be read by visitors (including the National Geographic Explorers) at the time they visited the caves and shot the film. FYI: The National Geographic Channel (NGC) is jointly owned by Fox Cable Networks and National Geographic Television Film. They are acknowledged as producing documentaries with factual content and pseudo-scientific entertainment programming on NGC (Wikipedia). This film appears to be a documentary enhanced with exaggerated mystery and danger. My contacts in China point out that the video is providing lots of publicity for the Leye-Fengshan Geopark, which is likely to make it easier (but probably more expensive) for future expeditions to get permission to cave in those areas.

Sims 232 Ky. 791, 24 S.W.2d 619 (1929). The question was really whether neighboring landowner should be permitted to survey Great Onyx Cave to verify whether or not it went under his land, but the assumption was that if it did, he could forbid showing that part of the cave. Appears to be a famous case; Google finds 324,000 hits for Edwards v Sims. I have a photocopy of the appeals court decision, including a dissent, that is pages 58 to 63 in some unknown (to me) book. The dissent argues that, although indeed one owns the land and everything under it to the center of the earth, that ownership really only applies to things that the owner can make use of. A cave without an entrance on his land wouldn't count. But the majority of the appeals court ruled the other way. No doubt other similar cases have arisen from time to time. -- Mixon Work is the curse of the drinking class.
