Check out the sink hole. Holy crap!
You know, there are some words I've known since I was a schoolboy: "With the first link, the chain is forged. The first speech censured, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably." Those words were uttered by Judge Aaron Satie, as wisdom and warning. The first time any man's freedom is trodden on, we're all damaged.

saw a pic of that at st.com that jadzia had posted. That is just scary. Stuff of nightmares. Amazing the factory had just closed.

why is it these things always happen in places where the people are the least likely to have the means to recover from it? :(

We had one not a foot away from my wife's fav breakfast joint near atlanta. Out of nowhere. It dropped a tree 20 feet and could have fit a tractor-trailer. I'll load the pic off my phone later.

It was on the local news. It was at Georgia Diner on Pleasant Hill (I85 exit 106)

Yeah,

"Your pipes are getting old dudes!"

Seriously, most of these are caused by aging water systems that leak and weaken the surrounding area causing it to sink. If it's not an aging water system, it's from underground water flow. Which may or may not be our fault.

That said, sink holes are terrifying. Did some research a while ago on them. There's also good pics and videos on youtube. Just look up sink holes.

I am curious if anyone has found out just how deep that sinkhole is.
