    my goodness… i cant believe you didnt catch the news, was somethig tragic, one of the survivors was talking with another person when this happen, the survivor was just about a meter and a half of this hole, and the other one… well, have a free fall. my question is, how is this uneasy silence material?

    I considered it offbeat. Then again, I don’t like LOTR, so some may say my logic is different. I say ask Dan, I write and he decides what to publish.

    This news missed me as well. And if for no other reason than now having read about it (I went googling to see what has happened since, after reading this), I’m glad it was posted.

    I remember that…crazy stuff. I wonder if they’ve filled it in yet, or how they deal with a massive sinkhole in any case.

    How does one create such sinkholes?
    Is there one below MY HOUSE right now???

    For some strange reason, this reminds me of war of the worlds.
