[Texascavers] UT Grotto programs
The Association for Mexican Cave Studies would like copies of its own (e.g., .mp4 files) of the fairly numerous UT Grotto programs on Mexican caves that have been Periscoped. I know in theory they will be available there for anyone who wants to figure out yet another web site probably designed no better than most, but I'll feel a lot more secure with copies in the AMCS's own archives, especially if they eventually get put on the AMCS web site (www.mexicancaves.org). Links to external sites tend to break. If someone knows how to capture videos from Periscope, please do so for us. We already have .mp4, .ts, and .mov files of talk at UT Grotto meeting August 3, 2016, by Fernando Hernandez about his trip to 2016 expedition of Proyecto Espeleológica Sistema Huautla (PESH), originally recorded on Periscope, about 45 minutes. I think that came, in one of those forms, from Diana Tomchick. Thanks. -- Bill Mixon God created the word in six days. On the seventh day, while God rested, the Devil created religion.

Re: [Texascavers] Cave Diving in Budapest :
Molnár János is the longest actively thermal cave in the world, at something like 5 - 6 miles as best as I can determine. It's almost entirely underwater, as the article points out. Here in Virginia we're actively exploring Warm River Cave, which is a bit over 3.5 miles long at present and does not require scuba. Unfortunately the cave is closed for recreational caving. These caves are real anomalies. Warm River has average air and water temperature of around 70 degrees in an area where caves are typically more like 54. However the many streams in the cave vary dramatically in temperature. The historic Hot Stream is in the 80s, but in the new section we have discovered infeeders up to 100 degrees, and in some places the air temperature is up to 80 degrees. It's actually too hot, which is rare for a cave. We gave a presentation on Warm River Cave at the NSS Convention in Missouri a couple of years back.
