I don't think so.
And it CAN happen under a house. That is the reason everyone reacts so fearfully when they hear about it. However I haven't heard of it happening here, that doesn't mean it didn't happen here on campus, but I am an avid reader of this forum now for five years and news seems to get here and every danged rumor under the sun too and that hasn't been reported.
I heard someone say that the Morse's better step up if she ever has a sinkhole problem. I was thinking that when the wind blew off shingles up North I wouldn't have blamed the developer. Nor would anyone I knew.
The Morses can't do much about preventing them. It is what happens VERY occasionally hereabouts because of the nature of the ground underneath us..
