Does that include cave diving? I read this a few weeks ago and thought it was pretty cool.

About a dude who pledged to recover a body while doing the deepest cave dive anyone had ever done.

You know how many horror movies there are about caves? 0.o

It's like you WANT to be eaten by some eyeless, hairless, fanged, super strong psycho creature!

Only for hibernation; eyeless, hairless, fanged, super strong psycho creatures live there all year 'round. You get these massive Clash of the Titan style battles between them when Autumn comes around --- that's when you REALLY don't want to be caught near a cave.

Yeah, due to time constraints and a sick 3 yr old, we only managed to get one tour in, the Chifley cave, but I enjoyed it and my 5 yr old had a ball. He was allowed to lead the way. Especially after another 5 yr old originally refused because he was scared, my boy was so proud of himself that he was brave enough.

Nice. Few years time, do the River cave, longer and old school, ladders and stuff. I've done Aladdin, Mammoth and Elder Cave up there

Lol, sorry, was being a tad facetious. They are all the adventure tours (although I think Mammoth is ending, they want to restrict access)

Those are the walkthrough with stairs and actual lighting. The others are the ones where you put on helmets and overalls and squeeze through gaps

When it comes to weirdly entertaining, it comes naturally to Ajax.

Ajax believes that you have to be a professional (retired car salesman) to use a spreadsheet application to plot public available data on a graph, but it's fine if you change the data as long as you're a professional retired car salesman (aka denialist professional climatologist)

Anthony Watts as a professional (retired) TV Anchorman is just glowing with qualifications.

The denialist crew now just need a few shonky lawyers. They make damn fine liars. Even better than car salesmen.

Its your side that are the liars in plain view too I might add.

Like for example the hockey stick hiding the medieval warm period.

The climate model computers predictions being out and your mob making up all sorts of crazy excuses.
