sinkholes

Article on the hidden menace (because it doesn't get headlines much) of sinkholes in roads.

I'd thought this was mostly elsewhere, but we just got emergency notifications that one appeared in an intersection along the main artery through downtown of our city. The only good news is that I'm not going anywhere near there today; will be quite occupied elsewhere.

I finally found out why the 448 train from Albany to Boston so often isn't running and they stick us on a bus. It's because there's a gigantic sinkhole somewhere along the track in the environs of Springfiield. As soon as they shore it up, it appears again. At least, acto a train worker.
