We usually have a sinkhole after a long dry spell and several inches of rain in a short period of time.

I am sick of the Kool-Aid posts. Some of us love it here quite genuinely and try to dispel rumors and gossip. Some of us were born to bloom wherever we are planted. And some of us love to stir the pot.
Yes, wherever one resides one assumes risk, whether it be sinkholes, earthquakes, crime, terrorists, hurricanes, tsunamis...the list goes on.
