Hi!! I'm Joe Pearce., 87,almost 88, and WW11 vet.. Charter member of Balcones Grotto, Austin, early fifties. The first Texas Caver was composed, assembled and mailed from my house..subscription one dollar, Bill Helmer, artist. What a bargain!!! NSS #2903.I think that should qualify me as an Old Timer, but unfortunately, I can't attend the TCR. Age and body just doesn't permit it. So that leaves it open for some other old timer to have the honor of being the oldest old timer there. I still follow caving on Texcave and reading Carl's " Fifty years of Texas Caving". I was lucky enough that Carl mentions me in his book. Just wanted to let you know that there a few of us still around. My caving buddies were Benny Pierson and R.T. Scott. Joe
