That's how I understand it but I don't see why they had to go so deep into the cave....I mean a mile in...what more is there to see?
......call me what you want but I wouldn't have gone beyond my view of the cave opening.

Hello; Did not know that.
Hello; Most of the month folks are normal enough at the local Wal-Mart. Come the 1st to the 3rd of the month here in Appalachia things change. Sometimes called check days. One those days it gets very crowded and no telling what you might see.
Hello; This.
Hello; There are several cave systems in my area. Limestone karst formations. Back in my youth I explored several. One near Pennington Gap VA. is large. With some friends we hiked thru passages for eight hours. Passages mostly large enough to drive a truck thru and then some tight places. We camped and slept a few hours and then explored side passages for several hours.
TN, KY, and VA where I live do not have a monsoon season but I have been in caves that had water level changes. My take is these people are in a bad bind. Those caves might fill completely from time to time. I also do not see them staying healthy for such a long time in a wet cave. I guess an attempt might be tried to teach them to dive but I just do not know enough to even guess at the odds for success.
Caves are dangerous places and this is a bad situation.
Oh...I thought once they were found they were rescued. I know they said they got them food, water, lights and were draining the water.
I don't recall seeing anything about them draining any water,that sounds interesting though.
They showed a 12 inch hose for the draining, how successful is another story
TBH, the only person I know who works for Walmart is Autistic (in a way that makes it hard for him to function) and quite happy he was able to get a proper job. I always thought of them as evil. I know people who swear Walmart has crashed the local economies of their towns, putting small stores and mechanic's shops out of business. This is another side of the story, in a way. Walmart does come with its blessings.
