Pyle, you do not know what the hell you are talking about. The line they
laid spans a total of 80 feet, and is 600 feet into the cave, 100 feet
past where the cave drops from 200 feet to 270. 

Why don't you shut the hell up. You are nothing but a lying little
shill, and a bulshitting idiot to boot. You have no clue what is being
discussed here, but your insticnt to lie takes over even when you are
way out of your realm, which is bullshitting bullshitters about
bullshit.
