     I think I can understand why you're teacher did'nt return.  I do
know that most of the entrances are privately owned, and some of them
have been closed down in one way or another.  As a matter of fact,
Garbage Pit entrance (name dating back to days when sanitation left a bit
to be desired) is now heating a greenhouse!  Other entrances are locked,
barred, or otherwise closed.  Usually, though, owners are amenable to
a request for access.  If it weren't for a few bad apples in the
group,so to speak, maybe fewer owners would say "NO".
     By my experince, Minton Hollow is easily accessible, right by an old
right-of-way, as is Post Office, although it is a twenty-foot chimney.
Post Office is probably the most accessible, being located right off
US 27, at the old post office.
     One of the more interesting entrances is called Screaming Willies.
It is located in the bottom of a large sink, and opens into the top of
a fifty-foot dome.  Access is available to anybody having good rappelling
gear, as far as I know.
     I suppose that this should have been located under a different
title, but once I start in, it's hard to stop.  Anyway, those are the 
entrances I'm best familiar with, and if anybody needs more info,
such as directions, let me know.
