A great, wet, muddy, cold time? Sounds like an oxymoron to me. As for the mystery, it will probably never be solved and the problem never eradicated. However, a feeble attempt could be made by putting a zipper on cave packs with a lock, a la American Tourister luggage. This may thwart all but the man of steel. Reminds me of a really cool song, "Rock Your Baby".

Went caving this past weekend with Bill Steele and Diane Tomchick at Jester Cave in SW OK this past weekend and had a blast! We were joined by my lovely daughter-in-law, Brandi Alman and her friend Jennifer, the SMU Outdoor club, several DFW Grotto cavers, and a Boy Scout Troop. A great, wet, muddy, cold time was had by all and we enjoyed the camaraderie and a TON of hibernating bats were observed, with no WNS evident! A great mystery has ensued, however and Sherlock Holmes may need to be called in! While unloading my gear yesterday and disinfecting it and what not, I was shocked to find not one, but, two rather sizeable rocks in my cave pack! How did they get there and what twisted and demented soul could possibly perform this dastardly act of geological treachery upon an innocent, balding 51 YO, such as myself?! Your help in apprehending this deviant and helping to solve this mystery will help make the world a safer place and allow us to eradicate, once and for all, the act of rocking packs! Thanks for your support! (Tongue firmly placed in cheek and the newest proud member of the "I've Been Rocked" Club) Mark
