I think most people do not know the process or the honor of being a NSS Fellow. To be honest, in Texas we just don't care as much about the national thing as people do in the Northeast, Midlands, and Southeast. But it is a huge honor, and I would contend that the national organization is important to us all, whether or not we participate.
At any rate, as I understand it, somebody has to advocate that a person become a fellow by writing letters for them, and listing their contributions to caving. Then a committee reviews the nominations, and chooses. If nobody from Texas is proposed, nobody becomes a fellow. So there it is. Perhaps we Texans need to do some proposals.

Does this make the second year in a row that no NSS Fellows have been awarded to Texas cavers? --Ediger --------------------------------------------------------------------- Visit our website: http://texascavers.com To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] --------------------------------------------------------------------- Visit our website: http://texascavers.com To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
