Well at least there is no oil drilling in The great Lakes. Can you imagine something like that happening in The Great lakes with its hug salt mines underneath it? 50% of the salt used comes from under The Great Lakes that is a huge mine.~!

Very interesting and thankfully no one was killed.

Something similar happened near where I grew up when they decided to mine coal under the river. Nobody could see that was a bad idea? Unfortunately miners did lose their lives.
