Some of us don't want to bring caves to the forefront of our nations mind.
The general public does not seek out caves. Once the general public learns about caves in a specific area, then vandalism is most likely to occur. This is another example of government creating a purpose for it's existence.
This meeting also involves taxpayer money which should concern all citizens of this country.

Are we just talking about an increase in "normal" cave wear-and-tear through increased visitation, or are you also saying there's been an increase in activity by that tiny but ever-present percentage of the population who somehow find it necessary to commit acts of vandalism?
