Re: What's with all the sinkholes?
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.

Exactly. :) I know Blackwolf is a geology major, so is Mestufa, any one else?
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside

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

My drill shall pierce the Earth and make large sinkholes.

i thought about saying something like that, but decided to edit it out for no good reason.
I can no longer sit back and allow communist infiltration, communist indoctrination, communist subversion, and the international communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

Re: What's with all the sinkholes?
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....
So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

I forsee several problems with this:

1)No Fantastic Four
2)No Ultimate Nullifier
