Flares are incredibly harmful to cave life, as well as cavers. Also don't burn magnesium flares in caves either. Sure, they are bright and cool (oooo, pretty colors!), but go completely against the modern "leave no trace" ethics we promote. Keep those things as simple historic and cinematic footnotes, please! -- Crash, concerned cave biologist Confidentiality Note: This email and any attachment to it are confidential and protected by law and intended for the use of the individual(s) or entity named on the email.
