Ok, so there was that big sinkhole in Guatamala not to long ago, but now a whole bunch of little ones have showed up in China (http://www.chinasmack.com/2010/pictures/sinkholes-appearing-around-china-chinese-netizen-reactions.html) recently. So what's the deal? Why are they all appearing now?

Bless the Maker and all His Water. Bless the coming and going of Him, May His passing cleanse the world. May He keep the world for his people.
but srsly folks, it's probably just coincidence.

All the vast empty spaces left by oil drilling are finally caving in? Land of the Lost is happenning?
I have no idea, but it's really cool.

why you should do geological surveys before building things. you have all kinds of things causing cavities to form in the earth's crust. underground water, caves, former mining activities, giant worms, ect. so if you dont take a good look at the ground youre building on youre just inviting disaster.

Had one a few weeks ago here in Tennessee, USA actually. Right underneath Interstate 24. Went undiscovered for a few minutes until an 18-wheeler ran over it. . .luckily the truck was long enough that it didn't go in (...that's what she said).

Probably, if it was it'd be like winning the lottery. It can happen. Still, whats a geologists take on all these sinkholes suddenly appearing all over the world?

Who the hell do you think they think you are?!

The lay explanation seems to be that it's an indicator of an imminent quake. At least three can probably be attributed to a major storm. Other than that, I dunno.

My drill shall pierce the Earth and make large sinkholes.

Exactly. :) I know Blackwolf is a geology major, so is Mestufa, any one else?

If the Angels have appeared, sinkholes are the least of our concerns...

Hades' mom is SO FAT sometimes when she's grabbing fistfuls of people and shoveling them into her four and a half mouths, she pokes her fingers right into the ground

i thought about saying something like that, but decided to edit it out for no good reason.

Hmm...I just bet if you correlate recent flooding (in Tennesee's case the worst in recorded history, in both monetary and less tangible ways making Katrina look like an afternoon shower, with barely a blip from ANY mass media source. Of course it's flyover country and the home of Country music so it's barely worth mentioning, but I digress...) and the locations of the sinkholes I suspect you'd find that the excess water is washing out the less dense strata beneath what's on the surface. Of course what do I know....

God, I want Brad Bird to do a sequel. :(
