I don't know, Ted. In fact, I have no idea how many were actually sold. They were handed out quite liberally to the leg and others, which was a major part of the idea. Inquire of Texas Monthly. I'm certain you can check out a copy through interlibrary loan, though. DirtDoc --

RE: [Texascavers] Fw: [CascadeGrotto] Underground city

That's a great article. The Cappadocians were among the earliest Christians in the world and their churches which have been carved into the rocks are well known worldwide. Thanks for passing it on. From: jlrbills@sonoratx.netTo: Texascavers@texascavers.comDate: Tue, 16 Dec 2008 07:47:25

CVS Pharmacy has a new flashlight worth talking about. At only $ 9.99 plus tax, this tiny light has 21 LED's. http://i14.ebayimg.com/04/i/001/06/6a/e54e_1.JPG I only bought it to compare the light pattern of the 21 LED's versus the 16 in the Walgreens model that I reported a few day's ago. The

[ot_caving] a cave book from 1956

I was in an old dusty bookstore this week. I have been there many times before and never found much of interest. But on this visit, I had some time to kill. I searched every nook and cranny and found a cave book from 1956 in nearly mint condition for only $ 4.50. The Big Cave by Abijah

I actually caught that last night on Letterman. I think it was pretty good, better than I would have guessed, but of course I'm a Neil Young fan from way back. See it below, if I managed to get the link. If I failed, just copy and paste the URL into the address field. Jenny
