This in turn may have messed with the core of the earth (based on current scientific models) which may be wrong. For instance this in February 2, 2012: [link to theextinctionprotocol.wordpress.com] |

He has clearly got an unlicensed pond there and will be holding water that falls from the sky onto his property, precious water that belongs to the king! Use the Oregon Pond jailing as the precedent. Anyone with holes on land - poof - they need new bodies in the jails cause pot smokers are coming in in fewer numbers. We need more ten-cent-an-hour workers to compete with China! Got a Sinkhole - go to jail. IT'S NOT JUST A BAD IDEA, IT'S THE LAW. "I would rather take a political risk in pursuit of peace, than risk peace in pursuit of politics." - Donald Trump |

User ID: 39491380 United States 08/04/2013 12:45 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I blame the mainstream media for reporting these events without an iota of research thus allowing people to respond to their rhetoric and most people fail to perform basic research thus blindly taking what they read as fact. Sinkholes are common in Kansas due to the porous limestone, chert and other minerals that dissolve with water and Kansas received extreme amounts of rain this year. Sharon Springs, Wallace County Kansas has numerous sinkholes over the years below are two notable sinkholes. Sharon Springs, Wallace County Kansas Old Maid's Pool--This sinkhole is northwest of Sharon Springs in Wallace County (sec. 30, T. 12 S., R. 40 W.). Moore (1926b) described it as 80 feet in maximum depth and three-eighths of a mile in diameter. It holds a small lake 300 feet wide, although in 1962 it was dry. The hole is circular, and the wall is moderately dissected. Pierre Shale is exposed on the south side of the basin (Elias, 1931). Smoky Basin Cave-in--A sudden subsidence which took place near Smoky Hill River about 5 miles east of Sharon Springs on March 9, 1926, attracted nationwide attention. [link to www.kgs.ku.edu] Sinkholes are nothing new to areas of Kansas In Kansas the presence of sinkholes is well known, and there are numerous descriptions of them and their mode of development (Frye, 1950; Schoewe, 1949). The best known sinks undoubtedly are those that affect the surface, particularly in western Kansas. The "Meade Salt Sink" developed in Meade County in March, 1879, across a cattle trail. Others of note are Big Basin and St. Jacob's well in Clark County. During the last 60 years, some sinks that developed almost overnight have attracted considerable attention because of their spectacular occurrence. One such example, described by Gordon (1938), developed near Potwin, Butler County, on the afternoon of September 22, 1937, and received world-wide publicity. These sinks affecting the surface are formed in beds ranging in age from Mississippian to Recent.
