The sinkhole that ate Texas

texas_sinkhole_txhou.jpg

The 260-foot-deep sinkhole appeared and grew to the length of three football fields over just two days. The 900-foot-long sinkhole, with crumbling dirt around its edges resembling sharp teeth, has swallowed up oil tanks and barrels, tires, telephone poles and several vehicles in Daisetta, TX.

Frankly, I'm surprised anyone noticed . . . did it cut off access to a Wal-Mart or something?

A: A good start.
