now i wuld not be looking in buttonwood,

Not really. A tornado you have plenty of warning prior to hitting an area and you have HO Ins that covers tornadoes. HO ins does not cover sinkholes in Fl. and you never have a warning when they will hit. Way off base with your comments on this one.

The National News deemed it important enough to air
 

Looking for reasons? Constantly? We just happened to end our Easter Sunday by tuning in to the ABC National News and were actually quite surprised when David Muir showcased the sinkhole in the Villages, Florida.

Thought I'd share the news video as it was quite dramatic as taken by the workmen while it was still in progress.......lots of that dirt going under.

Anyone in their right mind would be concerned. At least on the planet that I dwell on.

Also, I shared it on TOTV (not because I don't believe you all have newspaper access and televisions) just in case you were all "dancing the night away" at the squares......or else bidding your holiday guests goodbye........again, it was quite a dramatic video.

Is that a crime nowadays? Actually, I just looked, and I'm not the only one concerned about sinkholes in TV, nor feeling sorry for the homeowners. As a potential homeowner, we all need to be aware of our future investment in the "Friendliest Little Hometown".

One thing about New England, we still have free speech and the right to express varying opinions.

Personally, I'm thinking that at least with a hurricane, you have advanced warning.

Sorry to upset you, however, I can't get the image of that poor man in Brandon/Tampa being buried alive under his sinkhole.
When he went to bed that night, little did he know.........to me it was a great tragedy, ultimately for him, and for his family.

I'm sure I'm not alone. I live in the real world.


We'll be "vicariously" enjoying the Boston Marathon "live" on Direct T.V. today thanks to the Boston channel......and not dwelling on the sinkholes in Florida's lake country.

Well said.

There was very little warning to residents when the tornado hit in 2010. Tornados do often hit without any warning. Just do a Google search.
Way off base? I don't think so.

You are correct. She has 4,278 posts and still hasn't made up her mind if she wants to move here.

Dear Senior Citizen, WHAT?
Dear Happy days...Well said!

It's a discussion forum, welcome to all to state their opinions.

And most posts point out something; that is a reason for not buying here.
Or compares a situation in TV to some other area, that has no relevance.

The postings have gotten off the main topic and have become posters critiquing other posters. The thread is now closed.
