Mark Dickey is out of the Woods
   The 40 year old caver Mark Dickey was throwing out blood because of a gastro-intestinal infection in a very deep cave near the city of Mersin (like two Empire State buildings). Thanks to the efforts of a multinational team he is now back among us. Full story:

I have often wondered why otherwise intelligent people would spend their off-time caving?

There are also people who voluntarily jump out of perfectly good airplanes, which is a puzzle to me. Before I jump out of a plane, that motherfucker would have to be upside down and on fire.

That's different.

Of course it's different. Another difference is that nobody ever fell 40 000 feet out of a cave.

RE: Mark Dickey is out of the Woods
So Dickey is out of the cave and that is not a Freudian slip.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

For those of us who don't know the height of the Empire State Building, would it be too hard to give it in meters (or even feet if you must)?
