[quote:Anonymous Coward 794598:MV8xOTUxNjAzXzM0MDMzMzA4XzFDMzVEM0ND] Ok, I'm back after much more mine research and have come to the conclusion that's it is not just oil drilling and their dispersant to "clean it up" poisoning the shit out of everything. I looked up what other things LA has for active mines, and then looked up the elements on the periodic table, which I am going to post, so you guys can add things up and hopefully get a further perspective on what they're drilling for. It adds in to a bigger, shinier picture, which I will do my best to illustrate because I just don't believe it's all about oil and gas causing the sinkholes and explosions. The geological surveys, active mines list, and a geological census from 1997 show more than just gas, oil and salt in that region of the sinkhole. Also factor in the GOM is like the Grand Canyon and there are asphalt volcano's down there. Furthermore, there's a mighty big country across the Pacific that doesn't like tungsten, and the morans have created an ungodly disaster for the planet drilling to the depths of hell in their quest for the race to space. :( The most common use of barite is as a weighting agent in drilling muds. http://geology.com/minerals/barite.shtml Copper is one of the elements which has an alchemical symbol, shown below (alchemy is an ancient pursuit concerned with, for instance, the transformation of other metals into gold) http://www.webelements.com/copper/ (note the group # on the periodic table, weird) Lil' more on the last one http://education.jlab.org/itselemental/ele029.html Another element that adds up to 11 and its importance here http://www.webelements.com/tungsten/uses.html Love the cartoon in this one http://www.webelements.com/nickel/index.html What's in a name? From the German word Nickel, which means "Old Nick," a name for the devil. http://education.jlab.org/itselemental/ele028.html The active mines list http://active-mines.findthedata.org/d/d/Louisiana A LA census document from 1997~ 212299 All Other Metal Ore Mining http://www.census.gov/prod/ec97/97n21-la.pdf Excellent topography of the GOM http://www.globalresearch.ca/where-is-the-oil-spill/19813 This last piece for good measure http://www.texasalmanac.com/topics/business/nonpetroleum-minerals Then there's this piece from October 11 to help complete the big picture. Anyone remember Obama handing Brazil drilling rights and applauding them? Wonder if this is why the East Coast was hearing strange sounds and feeling vibrations up to Maine... "All over the world, the race for resources is forcing countries to spend more and drill deeper than they ever have before. Energy companies in the United States are using hydraulic fracturing to tap huge gas and oil reserves from Pennsylvania to Alaska. Argentina is preparing to explode rock to get unconventional oil and gas in Patagonia. Brazil has pioneered deep-water drilling techniques in the Atlantic. These long-term, multibillion-dollar projects are creating technological feats and opportunities for new industries unseen since the U.S. space race." http://www.wafb.com/story/19794948/chiles-huge-open-pit-copper-mine-goes-underground?clienttype=printable I sure [i]hope[/i] the Oort Cloud is comfy...:hi: :damned: we need more :crisco: [/quote]

The initially estimated 200 by 200 feet sinkhole that developed late last week, swallowing ancient cypress trees 100 feet tall near Bayou Corne and Grand Bayou communities in south Louisiana, is now reported to be 380 feet deep with a diameter of 372 feet, filled mainly with salt water with traces of diesel fuel, and only 1,500 feet from a cavern filled with butane, according to Tuesday morning news. Analysts' reports further hint that Texas Brine Company's cavern failed, but the butane cavern failing is today's worst-case scenario.
If a nearby butane-filled cavern fails, as it appears the brine cavern did,
"it could cause an explosion felt up to two miles away."
