== 2000 metres is deeper than 2190 metres?! ==

The introductory section appears to contradict itself: it says that in 2001 an expedition reached a depth of 2,190 metres, but then the very next sentence says that an expedition three years later was the first ever to exceed 2000 metres! Either there's a mistake here or inconsistent measurements are being used; either way, someone who knows about this stuff needs to rewrite the paragraph so it makes sense to non-experts.

The National Geographic Society, in the United States, uses the name Krubera Cave in it publications. I saw it there and had trouble finding it here in Wikipedia. What I found was several choices one of which led to the correct article, Voronya Cave.

Since there are 15,000,000 members of the National Geographic Society, I thought they might like to have a direct link to the correct article.

2000 metres is deeper than 2190 metres?!

The introductory section appears to contradict itself: it says that in 2001 an expedition reached a depth of 2,190 metres, but then the very next sentence says that an expedition three years later was the first ever to exceed 2000 metres! Either there's a mistake here or inconsistent measurements are being used; either way, someone who knows about this stuff needs to rewrite the paragraph so it makes sense to non-experts. 68.33.168.195 (talk) 03:26, 12 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
