[Texascavers] 700 foot pit ?

The Kilauea Caldera appears to now have a very scenic 700 foot rappel. U.S. taxpayers are getting jipped on this event. If the gov't allowed paying jumpers world-wide to pay $ 1,000 each, they would get 100,000 takers. And if they charged spectators per jump $ 10, they would make a killing.

[Texascavers] Relapsing Fever and other things that go bump in the night

Folks, I think this has made the rounds but thought I would send it out. I actually think this is pretty old news as I know a number of cavers that have already had Relapsing Fever. I think Travis was just recovering from it when we did the Devils Sinkhole LIDAR work about 15 years ago. Maybe
