Sinkholes

In FL, at least:

1) Limestone bedrock

2) Rising sea level affecting water table

3) Limestone erosion from underground aquifers

4) SINKHOLE

 

Anywhere else in the midwest, I blame FRACKING for introducing millions of gallons of pressurized water from hundreds of new wells to underground fault lines. Earfquakes/sinkholes FTL.

That's too scientific. I blame Obama, too.

So, can we at least partially blame Clay?

Had one that formed at my dad's old church in the parking lot. When the asphalt finally gave way it opened up into a small cavern that was probly 6 feet deep and 4 feet wide. Luckily it was during the middle of the week and no cars/people were present.
