Speaking of Ginnie Springs...

I finally found a copy of Sheck Exley's "Caverns Measureless to Man" on www.scubadivingbooks.com and noticed that next Tuesday is the 10th anniversary of his last dive.

If you haven't read the book, I recommend it. I'd have liked to have met the guy. Came onto the scuba scene a little too late, I guess.

Anyway, I'll be sure to raise a glass to the man on Tuesday... Vaya con Dios.

i never met him either, but you can't dive caverns or caves without "meeting" him
in a way.

here's a (very poorly written) essay i wrote about him:

Nice essay. You're right, you can't venture into the cavern/cave/springs world without seeing his name everywhere.
