Please don't... Facebook is a social site and not 100 % about caves which is okay for what it is, but to me it doesn't fit with basic concept of texascavers...
Just my 2 pennies worth...

Radical suggestion: could "[email protected]" become a member of facebook? If so, then what "it" posts could be forwarded to the list . . .

Elegantly stated, Jim. I think David must spend more time on Facebook than most anyone I know, and I doubt he is representative of cavers in general. If people insist on using Facebook or any other social medium for caving announcements, at the very least they should cc Texascavers (CaveTex) with the message. That takes no extra time, and insures that the wider audience of Texas cavers gets the message.

David,

You are missing the forest for the trees. There already IS something out there like you describe, and it works. It's called CaveTex. Look at it this way, you have to have email to be on Facebook. If you have email, and you are a caver, you SHOULD already be on CaveTex.
