THANKS, Bill! And for pointing out the size of DirtDoc's file. I inadvertently linked the wrong version of his talk; it's now 109 MB as stated.

This is a series of lectures organized for the first time in 2012 by Geary Schindel. I recommend all six of them. Instead of spending a lot of time binging on "The Walking Dead" or some such, download them from https://secure.caves.org/luminaries/index.shtml In theory they are in the "members only" secure area on the NSS web site that you have to log in to from the home page at caves.org, but it seems that the URL above works for anybody. It only takes a couple of minutes each to download the MP4 files, except for Dwight Deal's, which takes longer. The web site claims it's ~100 MB like the rest, but the file is actually 487 MB. Don't try to run more than one download simultaneously; the NSS server does not deal well with that. From a strictly entertainment point of view, those by Roger Brucker and Texan Dwight Deal are probably best, but all have a lot of interesting history of caving and the NSS. -- Mixon ---------------------------------------- Bigamy is having one wife too many.
