Spelunking in Las Vegas

LowellPorter writes "There's an article here about some reporters who check out the sewers in Vegas after a known criminal escapes a police dragnet through them. They expect to find lots of people living in there, but only end up interviewing a couple of bums."

    They expect to find some people living in there, but only end up interviewing a couple of bums who live there.

    So what are you trying to say, bums aren't real people?

    I read the whole thing when I woke up, thinking there might be some reason to why you decide to post it.

    Are the reporter guys your friends ? Or is the guy who originally posted the story your friend ?

    I mean, the whole thing is a little interesting, told in the perspective of two reporters, alternately, but when you half expect them to find an ogre or a troll, finding bums just isnt enough.

    Thats just my opinion.

    Right, because saying you're a caver is really going to save you when you fall to your death because you decided to take a picutre standing on one leg on a "really scary precipice"

    I agree that there a lot of areas in this world where there are new entrants into the field. However, I think it's counterproductive to oust them from the inner circle because of a word. This isn't high school.

    It probably would help more to take one of these spelunkers on a caving adventure and educate them, than to make fun of them when they're lost and hysterical.
