The Karst Information Portal includes the Oral History Project (go to www.karstportal.org and look under the Resources tab). Six oral histories are posted so far. As Sid correctly points out, there are lots more that should be done and done soon. If you are interested in making some possible and have both technical skills with the necessary equipment plus a broad enough caving background to be a good interviewer (or know someone who can fill in if you don't have what is needed), contact the people at the Portal to see how you can help.

We need more- There are so many good stories out there! But we also need help to collect material together, either existing material or by interviewing some of the great characters out there. We lose a few of cavings great people every year, don't let there stories go with them! Get in touch if you have anything to offer.
