Tom Sforza says the giant hole more than 12 feet deep and 20 feet wide has been growing for the past 5 years. He says it was caused by a broken storm drainage pipe that runs from the street to the back of his property. Sforza says his backyard has slowly eroded away during rain storms when the water from the street rushes into the broken pipe. City engineers say the pipe was installed by a developer in the 1920's and is on private property so it is not their responsibility. But Sforza says he pays property taxes for this land which has washed away because of storm water from city streets. He feels they could help in some way since his tax value is being eroded away by the growing sinkhole. by Frank Fraboni
Sinkhole area called 'very dangerous' to public
Monday, June 10, 2013By John Pulliam ~ Southeast Missourian
Editor's note: The following story has been edited to correct that Ken Eftink's comments were from 2011, when he was assistant city manager.
Cape Girardeau's public works director Tim Gramling said two sinkholes on South Sprigg Street, near LaCroix Creek, continue to grow. A sinkhole in the creek is causing water to flood into the nearby Buzzi Unicem quarry.
Gramling said as the waters of the Mississippi River rose to above flood stage for the second time this spring, the problem worsened. He said one of the sinkholes on South Sprigg Street is about 50 feet in diameter and about 15 feet deep. A second sinkhole near the end of the bridge over the creek is 20 to 25 feet in diameter and is roughly 6 to 8 feet deep.
"And it's growing as we're talking," he said.
Gramling attempted to explain why the problem, which has closed a portion of South Sprigg Street indefinitely, developed.
"You've just got to picture what's going on underground," he said. "It's like a 3-D Swiss cheese. Flood water gets into the cracks and crevasses and starts to fill up the quarry."
The water erodes the soil, causing more sinkholes.
Gramling said employees from Buzzi Unicem are working to address the creek sinkhole. He said the company is damming the creek by the bridge, attempting to isolate the water and keep down the flow into the quarry.
"They're not shut down, but they're trying their best to keep the water down," he said.
City employees are monitoring the creek bridge.
"It hasn't been affected," Gramling said. "We keep an eye on it."
The city and Buzzi Unicem have attempted in the past to fill the sinkholes with rock and concrete, to no avail.
"You can put stuff in them and it just disappears and we've done that for several years," Gramling said. "If we filled the holes up, by tomorrow [the fill] would be gone."
The sinkholes have been a problem in the area since 2007. In 2011, assistant city manager Ken Eftink said the number of sinkholes has grown from 15 to 33 in two months. The state Department of Natural Resources plans to take a look and city officials have met with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, U.S. Sen. Roy Blunt and former U.S. representative Jo Ann Emerson.
While the crest of the Mississippi River at just short of 45 feet on Friday at Cape Girardeau is good news in many ways, Gramling said it isn't much help as far as the sinkholes are concerned.
"When the water goes down, it actually aggravates them," he said. "It could aggravate them and make them worse."
Gramling said Ameren is keeping a close watch on a major natural gas line that runs through the problem area.
Asked if there's much that can be done, Gramling was not optimistic.
"Not really; just keep an eye on it," he said. "Right now the main thing is safety for the public. It's very dangerous; it's very unpredictable; it's random. It's just not a place for people to be walking around, unless they're emergency workers."
As for the future, the permanent closure of Sprigg Street in the area of the creek is a possibility. The city had to change plans to expand its wastewater treatment plant -- the first few sinkholes were noticed south of the plant -- and instead build a new one in another location.
Gramling said not to expect the closed portion of Sprigg Street to reopen any time soon.
"It will probably be closed now for a while," he said.

Here's a look at other big sinkholes in the news. An engineer surveys in front of a home where sinkhole opened up on Friday, March 1, 2013, in Seffner, Fla. Jeffrey Bush, 37, screamed for help and disappeared late Thursday evening as a large sinkhole opened under the bedroom of the house, his brother, Jeremy Bush, said Friday. Jeremy Bush told rescue crews he heard a loud crash near midnight Thursday, then heard his brother screaming. Jeremy Bush called police and frantically tried to help. An arriving deputy pulled him from the still-collapsing house. There's been no contact with Jeffrey Bush since then, and neighbors on both sides of the home have been evacuated. Workers suspended the search for Jeffrey Bush on Saturday.

Sinkhole in Nixa subdivision keeps growing
The sinkhole formed at about 10 feet. It's now an estimated to be about 50 feet wide and 50 feet deep.

NIXA, Mo. - A big sinkhole in Christian County is getting even bigger.
It's in a field in the bent-water subdivision on the north side of Nixa.
The sinkhole formed at about 10 feet. It's now an estimated to be about 50 feet wide and 50 feet deep.
Since it's on private property, it's up to the developer to decide what to do about it.
The person who lives close to the sinkhole is bringing someone in to determine its potential impact.
Why Are Giant Sinkholes Appearing All Over America? Is Something Happening To The Earth’s Crust?
Michael Snyder
March 4, 2013
Where are all of these giant sinkholes coming from? Of course there have always been sinkholes, but over the past few years it seems like both the severity and the number of giant sinkholes has been increasing dramatically. So exactly why are so many giant sinkholes appearing all over America all of a sudden? Is something happening to the earth’s crust, or is there some other explanation? The “experts” are blaming this epidemic of sinkholes on things like loose soil, acidic groundwater, new construction, leaky water pipes, coal mines, fracking, long periods of drought followed by rain, and depletion of underground aquifers, but do they really understand what is going on? On Thursday, a 37-year-old man named Jeffrey Bush living near Tampa, Florida died when the earth underneath his home suddenly opened up and swallowed him alive. His brother tried to help him when he heard Jeffrey screaming, but it was too late. The entire bedroom was sucked deep into the earth and the home had to be rapidly abandoned. Now authorities are admitting that he will probably never be found. So is this type of thing really “normal”? It would be one thing if this was just an isolated incident, but the truth is that giant sinkholes have been appearing with increasing frequency all over the planet lately. Could this be an indication that major earth changes are on the way?
Florida has always been an area that has been prone to sinkholes, but the numbers do show that sinkhole damage in the state has increased very rapidly in recent years. According to ABC News, insurance claims related to sinkholes more than doubled between 2006 and 2009…
Hillsborough County, where Seffner is situated, is part of an area in Florida prone to sinkholes, with insurance claims associated with them more than doubling between 2006 and 2009, according to a Florida Senate report.
But that is just Florida, right?
Other parts of the country are not having this kind of a problem, right?
Wrong.
Just check out what has been happening in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania lately. There are dozens of sinkholes that have opened up in Harrisburg, and the city is so broke that it doesn’t have the money to fix all of them.
In fact, at this point there are 41 sinkholes that have been documented in Harrisburg, and many of them are right in the middle of the street…
Pennsylvania’s state capital is suffering from a rash of monster sinkholes, but city officials are too broke to do anything about it.
Loose soil and leaky, century-old underground water pipes are to blame for the municipal nightmare, which came to a head on the New Year’s Eve when a 50-foot sinkhole yawned open along Fourth Street, the Wall Street Journal reported.
The eight-foot deep crater — one of at least 41 in the city — is so large, locals made it a “check-in” site on the social media site Four Square.
Of course there have been lots of cities throughout U.S. history that have experienced such an epidemic of sinkholes, right?
There is no reason to be alarmed, right?
In a previous article about sinkholes, I talked about a sinkhole that recently formed in Ohio that was the size of four football fields and that was more than 30 feet deep. It caused part of State Route 516 to collapse and authorities were projecting that the road would continue to stay closed for months to come.
But that is “normal”, right?
The giant Louisiana sinkhole in Assumption Parish that made headlines all over the nation last year is now more than 800 feet in diameter. It just continues to grow, and authorities have no idea when it will stop growing.
But this kind of thing happens all the time, right?
Just recently, large sinkholes forced roads to close in New Jersey and in Arizona. Of course those incidents will soon be forgotten because there are more news stories about major sinkholes in the United States almost every single day now. Giant sinkholes have been happening with such regularity that people hardly take notice anymore.
You can see some photos of some of the craziest sinkholes in recent years right here. It would be one thing if giant sinkholes were just appearing in the United States, but unfortunately that is not the case.
For instance, a sinkhole that appeared in the middle of Guatemala City in 2010 was about 30 stories deep.
Down in Sarisarinama, Venezuela some sinkholes have appeared in recent years that are more than 1,000 feet wide.
China has been one of the worst areas of the world for sinkholes over the past several years. In fact, just check out what has been happening in one village in China recently…
Residents in the village of Lianyuan in southern China’s Hunan Province have been treading rather gingerly these last few months. Over 20 sinkholes have opened up in the ground since last September. The cave-ins, which range in size, have seen houses collapse and rivers run dry. And there is never any warning as to where and when the sinkholes occur. According to local authorities, the main reason for the cave-ins is the number of coalmines in the area. It is not clear what steps are being taken to prevent further sinkholes from appearing.
I could go on and on with more examples from all over the globe, but hopefully you are starting to get the point.
Giant holes are opening up all over the earth and swallowing homes, buildings, roads and sometimes even people.
So why is this happening?
Is the crust of the earth becoming more unstable?
Or is something else at work?
Please feel free to post a comment with your opinion below…

East Rutherford Sinkhole? A forklift worker narrowly escaped serious injury after a warehouse floor collapsed in East Rutherford, N.J.
A forklift operator found himself suddenly waist-deep in a viscid and aromatic pool of cooking oil and soy sauce, following the collapse of a warehouse floor in East Rutherford, N.J., on Monday.
A sinkhole covers a street intersection in downtown Guatemala City on June 2, 2010. Authorities initially blamed heavy rains caused by tropical storm Agatha as the cause of the crater that swallowed a a three-story building. In April 2007 another giant sinkhole in the same area killed 3 people.

What in the world is going on? There are reports of unprecedented numbers of sinkholes and landslides popping up around the globe. Even though there have always been sinkholes and landslides, the severity and the number of giant sinkholes has increased dramatically. Where are all of these giant sinkholes coming from? Is something happening to the earth’s crust, or is there some other explanation?
Val and Valana predicted this was going to happen due to underground explosions and HAARP activity. This is another one of their predictions coming true. Their record is 100%.
Val adamantly warned that HAARP activity and underground explosions were weakening the Earth’s crust and if these activities did not stop the Earths crust could fail. I wrote several messages for Val about it from late 2011 through 2012, so I am very much aware of his warnings – warnings which we are now seeing come to pass – and how he implored those doing it to stop. Some of those messages were posted on this website at one time.
Following are excerpts from news stories of some of failures that are now occurring. After the news stories we look at what might be causing the failures. Before going there let's look at what's happening.
A 150-foot section of U.S. 89 south of Page, AZ buckled and sunk four feet. The sinkhole might have been caused by a “geologic event,” according to the Arizona Department of Transportation [in other words they don’t know what caused it]. The road collapsed about 25 miles south of page, according to an ADOT spokesman. He said the incident was not related to the weather. The road was closed in both directions and there was no estimation when the highway would reopen. The Coconino College campus in Page was also closed because of the road closure.
On Thursday, Feb. 28, 2013 a 37-year-old man Seffner, Florida died when the earth underneath his home suddenly opened up and swallowed him alive. A 20 feet wide sinkhole opened and inhaled his entire bedroom. His brother jumped into the hole and tried to help him but it was too late. The brother had to be rescued by a first responder.
A second sinkhole appeared in less than a week, about two miles from the first which killed a man in Seffner, Florida. The hole is about 10 feet across, and is straddling across a fence, affecting at least two properties, but no one was hurt by the second sinkhole.
A week after the loss of the Florida man, another man this time in Waterloo, Illinois, was swallowed by the Earth into an 18-foot deep hole under the Fairway of the Annbriar Golf Course. Course workers were able to rescue him. He only suffered a dislocated shoulder. He was on the 14th hole when he suddenly disappeared into a sinkhole a few feet wide – the ground had caved in and he fell 18 feet into the Earth and landed in mud at the bottom of a sinkhole, which was approximately 10’ wide. He was underground for about 20 minutes.
A sinkhole on a major New Jersey highway blew out the tires on 18 vehicles. The sinkhole was discovered around 6 a.m. on Thursday Feb. 28, 2013 in the right lane of the Garden State Parkway southbound in Woodbridge [this is maybe 2-miles from my family’s home]. Engineers are trying to figure out the cause. (Notice this happened earlier in the same day as the sinkhole that swallowed up the guy in Florida.)
Pennsylvania's state capital is suffering from a rash of monster sinkholes, dozens of sinkholes have opened up in Harrisburg, PA.
In Dec 2012 a sinkhole formed in Ohio the size of four football fields and more than 30 feet deep. It caused part of State Route 516 to collapse, taking a massive portion of the roadway, exposing a gas line and sinking utility poles. Authorities said that the road would be closed until the spring.
Is a 2nd sinkhole forming in LA? The state is taking a closer look at what residents say are bubbles in Lake Peigneur in Iberia Parish. The departments of Natural Resources and Environmental Quality took samples from Lake Peignuer to find out what is causing the bubbles. Residents are worried that the bubbles indicate big problems, and are against a proposed expansion of an underground natural gas storage facility. “If we get a big sink hole what’s going to happen? We don’t know,” concerned resident David Lecompte said. [Residents have reason for concern because the massive sinkhole in Assumption Parish started with bubbles in the swamp. It is believed to have been caused by the collapse of a salt dome being used as an underground storage facility.]
It is not just in the United States that giant sinkholes are appearing. They are happening all over the world. For instance, a sinkhole appeared in the middle of Guatemala that was about 30 stories deep.
A giant sinkhole swallowed up a rice field in China – frozen rice fields in Sichuan province were swallowed up by a massive sinkhole on Tuesday [Feb 5], with farmland collapsing into a pit ten meters across in the province’s Weiyuan county. The cave-in occurred around 7pm on February 5, with an explosive sound heard by villagers 100 meters away, which some compared to the sound of firecrackers. No one was reported to have been killed or injured, according to China News Service, but villagers will have to deal with the gaping holes in the middle of their land, while authorities monitor the area for further geologic instability.
Nightmarish cracks split the land in Kashmir. At least 200 families of Yamrad Bala, 16 km from Handwara have been forced to move to other locations after cracks developed in the land around their houses. The cracks are widening constantly giving a nightmarish experience to the inhabitants. Locals said that land was developing cracks, which were widening with each passing day. They expressed fear that their residential structures may collapse anytime and result in devastation of life and property. The land is developing cracks and it appears that major soil erosion may wreak havoc to life and property,” said Habibullah Qureshi, a local. The village is located at a slope and a non-metallic road connects it with the Handwara town. We have a joint family of 18 members living under a single roof. Fearing collapse of our house, we were forced to evacuate during the night and stay with relatives in Magam since Monday,” Muhammad Ayoub, a local said. Some families who muster courage to stay in their homes during nights said it was a nightmarish experience for them to spend nights amid increasing fear of widening of cracks. Following a representation by locals about soil erosion in the village, a team from Soil Conservation Department accompanied by Tehsildar Handwara Ghulam Ahmad Khan today visited the village. Officials of Soil Conservation Department collected the sample of soil and sent it for testing. There is no need to panic and necessary measures will be taken for the safety of inhabitants of the village,” Khan said. Most of the families evacuated their houses and moved to safer location in nearby localities during nights. “Staying for nights here may prove disastrous because land is developing more cracks at different places. For past two days, we have been moving to other locations to spend nights and avoid any eventuality,” a local Muhammad Sarwar said. “The soil may have turned marshy after many years. If that is the case, then the entire village may be forced to move to other areas for rehabilitation,” said another local Abdul Rashid Lone.
There is no end in sight to the severe disruption a massive landslide in the UK caused Scunthorpe area rail passengers, according to a leading rail expert. Sim Harris, managing editor at Railnews, the national newspaper for the British rail industry, says the landslide near Hatfield Colliery that is affecting thousands of North Lincolnshire rail passengers is the worst in decades. The disruption for passengers travelling between Scunthorpe and Doncaster has seen their journeys extended by up to an hour as they take buses to and from their destination. Work cannot begin repairing the track until the landslide stops moving – and officials at Network Rail say they have no idea when this will be. Mr Harris said: “Landslips themselves are not that uncommon and over the last year there have been quite a few because of the heavy rain that we have had. “There have been a lot of landslips that have not been rail-related, but some railways have been affected. This one is certainly the worst in my recollection and you have to go back a long way to find anything of this nature. In 1953, there were floods along the east coast service near Newcastle, where bridges were washed away. I don’t think I have seen anything like this in recent memory. I don’t recall anything as serious as this. There is no end in sight. He says repairing the line will not be an easy task. Until the ground stops moving, there is not much that Network Rail can do – their hands are tied. When it stops moving, it will take more than five minutes to rebuild four tracks of main railway. There are junctions that are involved which make it much more difficult.”
A major unprecedented landslide in Subiza (Cendea of Galar) Spain has devastated rural roads, farms and caused serious damage to two electrical towers that are at serious risk of falling. The landslide is located on the southeast slope of Mount of Forgiveness, towards Bells, and therefore did not affect any house in this small town of Basin, about 190 inhabitants. The dimensions of the land mass, dragged stones and vegetation, as a result of heavy rainfall are calculated such that can reach 800 meters long and 700 wide. “It is of immense dimensions, and quite tremendous.” I’ve never seen one this big slide,” claimed yesterday Esteban Faci, geologist of the Government of Navarre, in an initial field assessment. Continuous rains, during January and February, along with the snowmelt, are behind this spectacular landslide, which began about three or four weeks, according to Ismael Amatriain. As if it were a glacier, the tongue of land, rocks and vegetation has shifted gradually from the hillside, taking about six or seven fields of wheat and barley crops with it. It has also destroyed three rural roads; sometimes breaking them so dramatically that you could see a stretch perfectly, you can see where the next, 10 or 15 feet had moved. In addition, roads, are covered by tons of earth in places, and have large and deep cracks. The council has sealed off many of these roads, making access totally impassable. The landslide also destroyed a cattle track that crossed the region.
Giant holes, manifesting as sinkholes, landslides or cracks in the Earth, are opening up all over the world and swallowing homes, buildings, roads and sometimes even people. Why is this happening? Is the crust of the earth becoming more unstable? Or is something else at work?
According to Val’s warnings, HAARP activity and underground explosions have the potential to weaken the Earth’s crust and cause it to fail. Following is a discussion about how HAARP works and how it and the underground explosions are adversely affecting the Earth’s crust.
HAARP is a field of 360 antennas, linked together to operate as one enormous antennae. Each one produces 10,000 watts. When all are working together they produce 3.6 million watts collectively.
The HAARP antennae broadcast radio waves (which is electromagnetic radiation traveling as waves in the frequency range of about 10 kHz to 300 GHz). It broadcasts them up into the atmosphere, or down into the earth. When shot up, the antennas heat the ionosphere and bounce the powerful radio waves back to earth. The radio waves penetrate the Earth, bounce back and forth inside the Earth a couple of times, heat up the groundwater, and cause Earthquakes. When aimed down, these powerful waves are shot directly into the earth, causing the same scenario, but more powerfully so. It is believed that when shot directly into the ground they hit fault lines and cause violent earthquakes. This is what we know. Val has added that this activity powerfully and negatively affects the Earth’s core as well. He has also told us that the Earth’s core has been displaced. The other cause of this trouble according to Val is underground explosions which are the result of secret testing of new technologies (Val has not given more information about the explosions, than that).
Because the Earth’s core has been displaced, when the underground explosions occur, or HAARP radio waves penetrate the Earth, it causes the solid core to bounce back and forth within the liquefied magma and hit the mantle. This in turn causes harmonic tremors.
A harmonic tremor is a long sustained energy wave, or a constant long period tremor. Usually the presence of harmonic tremors means that magma or water/fluid is moving in the crust of the Earth, generating a constant seismic rumble. (People don’t feel these types of tremors; they are only measurable by seismic instruments.)
Starting during the last quarter of 2011 we have been seeing long, continuous harmonic tremors showing up on every seismograph in the world (indicating the entire Earth’s crust is undergoing harmonic tremors). They spread around the globe in a chronological progression, transferring from plate to plate, as if a domino effect is taking place.
Sometimes the tremors encircle the planet and get back to where they started before the first round of tremors subside. This is a very serious situation because if such tremors continue they can build up and grow exponentially. Val has likened this to a group of foot soldiers marching across a bridge without breaking step. If that were to happen the Earth’s crust could break up (and we could find ourselves in another Atlantis scenario). There were a number of times when Val’s crews had to intervene to stop that from happening.
There is a second danger Val warned us about. If these tremors were to occur again and again (which is exactly what has been happening) they could weaken the Earth’s crusts due to fatigue (think of bending a piece of metal back and forth over and over again until it breaks). With so many failures occurring in the Earth’s crusts it seems that may be exactly what is happening!

Helen, I think the tectonic activity we are seeing is part of the solution.
not part of the problem.
If haarp has facilitated the what we are seeing, Gaia, is responding in kind.
I do believe that it was only a matter of time before these changes occurred anyway.
All humanity is doing is moving the timing of them forward.
I understand Helen. That the activities of man are driving the ecological changes,
And the ecological changes will put an end to theses activities by cleansing the surface of that which is driving them.
We are so arrogant as to think we can destroy Gaia,
We are not even close.
And still, the messages from on high are delivered with ever increasing urgency to this community.
To look inside ourselves and awaken to our light.
So that we can make an energetic difference, and ease the burden on Gaia.
And instead we call it fear porn.
We are either part of the solution, or part of the problem.
This reminds me of a conversation I had with my son years ago......we were talking about oil running out in the earth.......I asked him....what if the oil has a purpose that we haven't thought of......earth is a body.....we all know what would happen if we sucked all the blood out of a body or all the lymph fluid.....we'd die....
We went on to imagine that maybe oil does for the earth what we use it for at times.....lubrication.....and how that might impact the natural movement of the earth's crust......neither of us knew if our ideas had any scientific merit.....but we imagined that earthquakes would increase with lack of lube.....
I ended up making a joke about the possibility of the earth imploding once all the oil had been extracted....sort of like a plastic pop bottle imploding if you extract the soda without allowing air in....
Time to run technological ideas past indigenous peoples before we embark on any new "extracting resources" of Mother Gaia I think.....we have all lived too long without considering the consequences of our actions....
Love Lori
Actually Lori, this is a observation may not be too far from the truth.
I've actually heard that natural gas also plays a part in lubricating the movement of the crust on the mantle.
Yes, Lori and Peter, these are good points by both of you. Thanks.
Hi Peter,
Thanks for commenting. However, sinkholes are not a result of tectonic activity, and it is not tectonic activity that caused these specific events.
We just need a sink hole under the HARRP devices this will solve the problem.
Unfortunately, Eion, it doesn't work like that.
"We just need a sink hole under the HARRP devices this will solve the problem."
That is the best solution ever! LOL
Exactly what is happening Patty and we can look for worse to come, these sink holes are only Gaia's warning to stop it...I hadn't read this, just got around to it I just asked you to post it here as Val wanted it out as far as it could go and anyone is welcome to re-post please give Patty Brown credit as she's the only other authorized channel at this time for Cmdr Val Thor .I've authorized and Patty flip your copyright on it copy mine and replaced my name with yours. Also put a Val Thor authorized channel by Valana..I'm not having more of our work stolen...and given credit to another for Val's work as he will not have that he will quit us!. We got a mad commander up there about some things happening to me.
Patty and I have not been able to find any active seismic reports they cut us off, stopped showing them as probably others besides us were talking about it and getting people to understand what is going on. Val is telling me it's still worsening... they have the seismic readings there on the ship... Val has said in past that if they continue over such and such a period there is danger of the crust giving way in a wide area that could sink cities...now that we have here on earth the ability to use the ...what is it Patty? Wish I"d studied science... we could harm the tech ships and Val has said he will not send crew on suicide missions here so we are not getting the help we could get..he's asked me to say before that any ships going down into the ocean please leave them alone they are on rescue mission to try to help us and steady the core and the plates.. he's also asked that they do not touch the ....monoliths? Is that a word? Patty help me out here... give that to Patty...these are sounding devices they are planting in deep water oceans...deep in water in oceans! <g> This is to replace the soundings of the large sea mammals that have had nervous breakdowns from the Navy sonar...which Val has been warning against since 1990's when we came on the Internet with his writings. this was prior to the Dolphins going crazy and beaching their young,.....we were much into saving the Dolphins back then. Val used to say "Tell them there's no Soviet navy anymore to watch for! <g> They evidently don't know the Soviets have fallen to Capitalism!" LOL I don't know why they even try to help this motley crew down here on the planet we not worth the trouble. Keep a watch on our groups wherever we are I'll be giving last minute info on the evac soon as it's ordered if they do it, if they can't do it in time some of us ..look for us and we'll be gone they'll get us. Val will get me if he doesn't have time for anyone else in a black eagle and we'll meet the fleets the other side of the rim...and Val and I are going back home to our home on the side of Venus Mountain on the Crystal Planet. Yeah we have a home there, that's where I'm from. don't like to sound new agy but it's time I said it, I don't have anymore fingerprints than Val Thor...if one don't know what that means well sorry! <g> I'm not telling it!....but my name ain't Deena! <ROTFL> Minister Donn told me to tell them if they mention Denus from Venus again to me that I feel sorry for that poor broad as she can't have my man he may have had a one night stand with her when he was lonely and missing me but he's all mine so eat your heart out Deena weiner! we got kids spread out from the old Atlantis to the new we can't count and we forget about them, got a few of ours from Atlantis on my site one or two of them right here on this group, they just don't say anything, just watching and shaking their heads...
Hellen you are exactly right and Lori you hit the nail on the head about the lubricant...Val has said it's like if you drain all the oil of a car and continue to expect it to run it won't run long, the vibration will shake something loose and finally it will shake itself apart and that's exactly what is happening now... now they are after deep drilling oil on another level..not concerned with the future generation just how much money can we make now? They can't even spend it in a life time but they just want to make it..obsession, no regard for future generations...
I have to politely disagree with whoever said it would happen anyway I don't think so if we had taken care of mother Gaia like the indigenous people did I think we would be in much better shape today. My late husband, after he retired, used to go out in Missouri and pull herbs to sell...and he went with others one was Native American and he told them when they pulled something out of the ground in harvesting the herb to take time to replace don't just throw it away. He didn't pick as much as they did but he replaced everything he displaced...
Reminds me of something I read about an old man walking along the beach and he'd pick up a str fish and throw it back in the water that the waves had washed hundreds up on the beach...someone told him, there's hundreds of them dying what good will it do to pick up just a few and toss them back in, and the old man said, each one is one that didn't die on the beach and it's important to that one...
Valana, I made the comment elsewhere about what is happening with respect to tectonic activity. And that it would have happened anyway.
I agree with you that if we had taken better care of Mother she wouldn't need to take such steps as she is taking now. That is not in dispute.
However I Am sure that our ancestors also saw there fair share of ecological excitement.
The tectonic plates are constantly moving. and eventually that movement will lead to instability. '
If we hadn't seen fit to plunder and attack the earth and her resources, and if our attitude towards each other was more vibrationally favourable, we probably wouldn't be seeing the symptoms we are seeing now, at this time.
However, over time, the movement of the various plates against each would create that which we are seeing now. It has been a part of the planets history. It is a consequence of a living, dynamic Gaia.
we must also take into consideration that the angelic realm has been at various times, pleading with light workers of the world to do their part. To put a greater effort in raising humanities vibration. To reduce the vibrational deficit between us and an ascending Gaia.

Tom Sforza says the giant hole more than 12 feet deep and 20 feet wide has been growing for the past 5 years. He says it was caused by a broken storm drainage pipe that runs from the street to the back of his property. Sforza says his backyard has slowly eroded away during rain storms when the water from the street rushes into the broken pipe. City engineers say the pipe was installed by a developer in the 1920's and is on private property so it is not their responsibility. But Sforza says he pays property taxes for this land which has washed away because of storm water from city streets. He feels they could help in some way since his tax value is being eroded away by the growing sinkhole. by Frank Fraboni
Sinkhole area called 'very dangerous' to public
Monday, June 10, 2013By John Pulliam ~ Southeast Missourian
Editor's note: The following story has been edited to correct that Ken Eftink's comments were from 2011, when he was assistant city manager.
Cape Girardeau's public works director Tim Gramling said two sinkholes on South Sprigg Street, near LaCroix Creek, continue to grow. A sinkhole in the creek is causing water to flood into the nearby Buzzi Unicem quarry.
Gramling said as the waters of the Mississippi River rose to above flood stage for the second time this spring, the problem worsened. He said one of the sinkholes on South Sprigg Street is about 50 feet in diameter and about 15 feet deep. A second sinkhole near the end of the bridge over the creek is 20 to 25 feet in diameter and is roughly 6 to 8 feet deep.
"And it's growing as we're talking," he said.
Gramling attempted to explain why the problem, which has closed a portion of South Sprigg Street indefinitely, developed.
"You've just got to picture what's going on underground," he said. "It's like a 3-D Swiss cheese. Flood water gets into the cracks and crevasses and starts to fill up the quarry."
The water erodes the soil, causing more sinkholes.
Gramling said employees from Buzzi Unicem are working to address the creek sinkhole. He said the company is damming the creek by the bridge, attempting to isolate the water and keep down the flow into the quarry.
"They're not shut down, but they're trying their best to keep the water down," he said.
City employees are monitoring the creek bridge.
"It hasn't been affected," Gramling said. "We keep an eye on it."
The city and Buzzi Unicem have attempted in the past to fill the sinkholes with rock and concrete, to no avail.
"You can put stuff in them and it just disappears and we've done that for several years," Gramling said. "If we filled the holes up, by tomorrow [the fill] would be gone."
The sinkholes have been a problem in the area since 2007. In 2011, assistant city manager Ken Eftink said the number of sinkholes has grown from 15 to 33 in two months. The state Department of Natural Resources plans to take a look and city officials have met with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, U.S. Sen. Roy Blunt and former U.S. representative Jo Ann Emerson.
While the crest of the Mississippi River at just short of 45 feet on Friday at Cape Girardeau is good news in many ways, Gramling said it isn't much help as far as the sinkholes are concerned.
"When the water goes down, it actually aggravates them," he said. "It could aggravate them and make them worse."
Gramling said Ameren is keeping a close watch on a major natural gas line that runs through the problem area.
Asked if there's much that can be done, Gramling was not optimistic.
"Not really; just keep an eye on it," he said. "Right now the main thing is safety for the public. It's very dangerous; it's very unpredictable; it's random. It's just not a place for people to be walking around, unless they're emergency workers."
As for the future, the permanent closure of Sprigg Street in the area of the creek is a possibility. The city had to change plans to expand its wastewater treatment plant -- the first few sinkholes were noticed south of the plant -- and instead build a new one in another location.
Gramling said not to expect the closed portion of Sprigg Street to reopen any time soon.
"It will probably be closed now for a while," he said.

Here's a look at other big sinkholes in the news. An engineer surveys in front of a home where sinkhole opened up on Friday, March 1, 2013, in Seffner, Fla. Jeffrey Bush, 37, screamed for help and disappeared late Thursday evening as a large sinkhole opened under the bedroom of the house, his brother, Jeremy Bush, said Friday. Jeremy Bush told rescue crews he heard a loud crash near midnight Thursday, then heard his brother screaming. Jeremy Bush called police and frantically tried to help. An arriving deputy pulled him from the still-collapsing house. There's been no contact with Jeffrey Bush since then, and neighbors on both sides of the home have been evacuated. Workers suspended the search for Jeffrey Bush on Saturday.

Sinkhole in Nixa subdivision keeps growing
The sinkhole formed at about 10 feet. It's now an estimated to be about 50 feet wide and 50 feet deep.

NIXA, Mo. - A big sinkhole in Christian County is getting even bigger.
It's in a field in the bent-water subdivision on the north side of Nixa.
The sinkhole formed at about 10 feet. It's now an estimated to be about 50 feet wide and 50 feet deep.
Since it's on private property, it's up to the developer to decide what to do about it.
The person who lives close to the sinkhole is bringing someone in to determine its potential impact.
Why Are Giant Sinkholes Appearing All Over America? Is Something Happening To The Earth’s Crust?
Michael Snyder
March 4, 2013
Where are all of these giant sinkholes coming from? Of course there have always been sinkholes, but over the past few years it seems like both the severity and the number of giant sinkholes has been increasing dramatically. So exactly why are so many giant sinkholes appearing all over America all of a sudden? Is something happening to the earth’s crust, or is there some other explanation? The “experts” are blaming this epidemic of sinkholes on things like loose soil, acidic groundwater, new construction, leaky water pipes, coal mines, fracking, long periods of drought followed by rain, and depletion of underground aquifers, but do they really understand what is going on? On Thursday, a 37-year-old man named Jeffrey Bush living near Tampa, Florida died when the earth underneath his home suddenly opened up and swallowed him alive. His brother tried to help him when he heard Jeffrey screaming, but it was too late. The entire bedroom was sucked deep into the earth and the home had to be rapidly abandoned. Now authorities are admitting that he will probably never be found. So is this type of thing really “normal”? It would be one thing if this was just an isolated incident, but the truth is that giant sinkholes have been appearing with increasing frequency all over the planet lately. Could this be an indication that major earth changes are on the way?
Florida has always been an area that has been prone to sinkholes, but the numbers do show that sinkhole damage in the state has increased very rapidly in recent years. According to ABC News, insurance claims related to sinkholes more than doubled between 2006 and 2009…
Hillsborough County, where Seffner is situated, is part of an area in Florida prone to sinkholes, with insurance claims associated with them more than doubling between 2006 and 2009, according to a Florida Senate report.
But that is just Florida, right?
Other parts of the country are not having this kind of a problem, right?
Wrong.
Just check out what has been happening in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania lately. There are dozens of sinkholes that have opened up in Harrisburg, and the city is so broke that it doesn’t have the money to fix all of them.
In fact, at this point there are 41 sinkholes that have been documented in Harrisburg, and many of them are right in the middle of the street…
Pennsylvania’s state capital is suffering from a rash of monster sinkholes, but city officials are too broke to do anything about it.
Loose soil and leaky, century-old underground water pipes are to blame for the municipal nightmare, which came to a head on the New Year’s Eve when a 50-foot sinkhole yawned open along Fourth Street, the Wall Street Journal reported.
The eight-foot deep crater — one of at least 41 in the city — is so large, locals made it a “check-in” site on the social media site Four Square.
Of course there have been lots of cities throughout U.S. history that have experienced such an epidemic of sinkholes, right?
There is no reason to be alarmed, right?
In a previous article about sinkholes, I talked about a sinkhole that recently formed in Ohio that was the size of four football fields and that was more than 30 feet deep. It caused part of State Route 516 to collapse and authorities were projecting that the road would continue to stay closed for months to come.
But that is “normal”, right?
The giant Louisiana sinkhole in Assumption Parish that made headlines all over the nation last year is now more than 800 feet in diameter. It just continues to grow, and authorities have no idea when it will stop growing.
But this kind of thing happens all the time, right?
Just recently, large sinkholes forced roads to close in New Jersey and in Arizona. Of course those incidents will soon be forgotten because there are more news stories about major sinkholes in the United States almost every single day now. Giant sinkholes have been happening with such regularity that people hardly take notice anymore.
You can see some photos of some of the craziest sinkholes in recent years right here. It would be one thing if giant sinkholes were just appearing in the United States, but unfortunately that is not the case.
For instance, a sinkhole that appeared in the middle of Guatemala City in 2010 was about 30 stories deep.
Down in Sarisarinama, Venezuela some sinkholes have appeared in recent years that are more than 1,000 feet wide.
China has been one of the worst areas of the world for sinkholes over the past several years. In fact, just check out what has been happening in one village in China recently…
Residents in the village of Lianyuan in southern China’s Hunan Province have been treading rather gingerly these last few months. Over 20 sinkholes have opened up in the ground since last September. The cave-ins, which range in size, have seen houses collapse and rivers run dry. And there is never any warning as to where and when the sinkholes occur. According to local authorities, the main reason for the cave-ins is the number of coalmines in the area. It is not clear what steps are being taken to prevent further sinkholes from appearing.
I could go on and on with more examples from all over the globe, but hopefully you are starting to get the point.
Giant holes are opening up all over the earth and swallowing homes, buildings, roads and sometimes even people.
So why is this happening?
Is the crust of the earth becoming more unstable?
Or is something else at work?
Please feel free to post a comment with your opinion below…

East Rutherford Sinkhole? A forklift worker narrowly escaped serious injury after a warehouse floor collapsed in East Rutherford, N.J.
A forklift operator found himself suddenly waist-deep in a viscid and aromatic pool of cooking oil and soy sauce, following the collapse of a warehouse floor in East Rutherford, N.J., on Monday.
A sinkhole covers a street intersection in downtown Guatemala City on June 2, 2010. Authorities initially blamed heavy rains caused by tropical storm Agatha as the cause of the crater that swallowed a a three-story building. In April 2007 another giant sinkhole in the same area killed 3 people.

http://www.nydailynews.com/news/world/sinkholes-world-gallery-1.1277820The Great Collapse: The Earth’s Crust is Weakening and Collapsing Across the Planet
What in the world is going on? There are reports of unprecedented numbers of sinkholes and landslides popping up around the globe. Even though there have always been sinkholes and landslides, the severity and the number of giant sinkholes has increased dramatically. Where are all of these giant sinkholes coming from? Is something happening to the earth’s crust, or is there some other explanation?
Val and Valana predicted this was going to happen due to underground explosions and HAARP activity. This is another one of their predictions coming true. Their record is 100%.
Val adamantly warned that HAARP activity and underground explosions were weakening the Earth’s crust and if these activities did not stop the Earths crust could fail. I wrote several messages for Val about it from late 2011 through 2012, so I am very much aware of his warnings – warnings which we are now seeing come to pass – and how he implored those doing it to stop. Some of those messages were posted on this website at one time.
Following are excerpts from news stories of some of failures that are now occurring. After the news stories we look at what might be causing the failures. Before going there let's look at what's happening.
A 150-foot section of U.S. 89 south of Page, AZ buckled and sunk four feet. The sinkhole might have been caused by a “geologic event,” according to the Arizona Department of Transportation [in other words they don’t know what caused it]. The road collapsed about 25 miles south of page, according to an ADOT spokesman. He said the incident was not related to the weather. The road was closed in both directions and there was no estimation when the highway would reopen. The Coconino College campus in Page was also closed because of the road closure.
On Thursday, Feb. 28, 2013 a 37-year-old man Seffner, Florida died when the earth underneath his home suddenly opened up and swallowed him alive. A 20 feet wide sinkhole opened and inhaled his entire bedroom. His brother jumped into the hole and tried to help him but it was too late. The brother had to be rescued by a first responder.
A second sinkhole appeared in less than a week, about two miles from the first which killed a man in Seffner, Florida. The hole is about 10 feet across, and is straddling across a fence, affecting at least two properties, but no one was hurt by the second sinkhole.
A week after the loss of the Florida man, another man this time in Waterloo, Illinois, was swallowed by the Earth into an 18-foot deep hole under the Fairway of the Annbriar Golf Course. Course workers were able to rescue him. He only suffered a dislocated shoulder. He was on the 14th hole when he suddenly disappeared into a sinkhole a few feet wide – the ground had caved in and he fell 18 feet into the Earth and landed in mud at the bottom of a sinkhole, which was approximately 10’ wide. He was underground for about 20 minutes.
A sinkhole on a major New Jersey highway blew out the tires on 18 vehicles. The sinkhole was discovered around 6 a.m. on Thursday Feb. 28, 2013 in the right lane of the Garden State Parkway southbound in Woodbridge [this is maybe 2-miles from my family’s home]. Engineers are trying to figure out the cause. (Notice this happened earlier in the same day as the sinkhole that swallowed up the guy in Florida.)
Pennsylvania's state capital is suffering from a rash of monster sinkholes, dozens of sinkholes have opened up in Harrisburg, PA.
In Dec 2012 a sinkhole formed in Ohio the size of four football fields and more than 30 feet deep. It caused part of State Route 516 to collapse, taking a massive portion of the roadway, exposing a gas line and sinking utility poles. Authorities said that the road would be closed until the spring.
Is a 2nd sinkhole forming in LA? The state is taking a closer look at what residents say are bubbles in Lake Peigneur in Iberia Parish. The departments of Natural Resources and Environmental Quality took samples from Lake Peignuer to find out what is causing the bubbles. Residents are worried that the bubbles indicate big problems, and are against a proposed expansion of an underground natural gas storage facility. “If we get a big sink hole what’s going to happen? We don’t know,” concerned resident David Lecompte said. [Residents have reason for concern because the massive sinkhole in Assumption Parish started with bubbles in the swamp. It is believed to have been caused by the collapse of a salt dome being used as an underground storage facility.]
It is not just in the United States that giant sinkholes are appearing. They are happening all over the world. For instance, a sinkhole appeared in the middle of Guatemala that was about 30 stories deep.
A giant sinkhole swallowed up a rice field in China – frozen rice fields in Sichuan province were swallowed up by a massive sinkhole on Tuesday [Feb 5], with farmland collapsing into a pit ten meters across in the province’s Weiyuan county. The cave-in occurred around 7pm on February 5, with an explosive sound heard by villagers 100 meters away, which some compared to the sound of firecrackers. No one was reported to have been killed or injured, according to China News Service, but villagers will have to deal with the gaping holes in the middle of their land, while authorities monitor the area for further geologic instability.
Nightmarish cracks split the land in Kashmir. At least 200 families of Yamrad Bala, 16 km from Handwara have been forced to move to other locations after cracks developed in the land around their houses. The cracks are widening constantly giving a nightmarish experience to the inhabitants. Locals said that land was developing cracks, which were widening with each passing day. They expressed fear that their residential structures may collapse anytime and result in devastation of life and property. The land is developing cracks and it appears that major soil erosion may wreak havoc to life and property,” said Habibullah Qureshi, a local. The village is located at a slope and a non-metallic road connects it with the Handwara town. We have a joint family of 18 members living under a single roof. Fearing collapse of our house, we were forced to evacuate during the night and stay with relatives in Magam since Monday,” Muhammad Ayoub, a local said. Some families who muster courage to stay in their homes during nights said it was a nightmarish experience for them to spend nights amid increasing fear of widening of cracks. Following a representation by locals about soil erosion in the village, a team from Soil Conservation Department accompanied by Tehsildar Handwara Ghulam Ahmad Khan today visited the village. Officials of Soil Conservation Department collected the sample of soil and sent it for testing. There is no need to panic and necessary measures will be taken for the safety of inhabitants of the village,” Khan said. Most of the families evacuated their houses and moved to safer location in nearby localities during nights. “Staying for nights here may prove disastrous because land is developing more cracks at different places. For past two days, we have been moving to other locations to spend nights and avoid any eventuality,” a local Muhammad Sarwar said. “The soil may have turned marshy after many years. If that is the case, then the entire village may be forced to move to other areas for rehabilitation,” said another local Abdul Rashid Lone.
There is no end in sight to the severe disruption a massive landslide in the UK caused Scunthorpe area rail passengers, according to a leading rail expert. Sim Harris, managing editor at Railnews, the national newspaper for the British rail industry, says the landslide near Hatfield Colliery that is affecting thousands of North Lincolnshire rail passengers is the worst in decades. The disruption for passengers travelling between Scunthorpe and Doncaster has seen their journeys extended by up to an hour as they take buses to and from their destination. Work cannot begin repairing the track until the landslide stops moving – and officials at Network Rail say they have no idea when this will be. Mr Harris said: “Landslips themselves are not that uncommon and over the last year there have been quite a few because of the heavy rain that we have had. “There have been a lot of landslips that have not been rail-related, but some railways have been affected. This one is certainly the worst in my recollection and you have to go back a long way to find anything of this nature. In 1953, there were floods along the east coast service near Newcastle, where bridges were washed away. I don’t think I have seen anything like this in recent memory. I don’t recall anything as serious as this. There is no end in sight. He says repairing the line will not be an easy task. Until the ground stops moving, there is not much that Network Rail can do – their hands are tied. When it stops moving, it will take more than five minutes to rebuild four tracks of main railway. There are junctions that are involved which make it much more difficult.”
A major unprecedented landslide in Subiza (Cendea of Galar) Spain has devastated rural roads, farms and caused serious damage to two electrical towers that are at serious risk of falling. The landslide is located on the southeast slope of Mount of Forgiveness, towards Bells, and therefore did not affect any house in this small town of Basin, about 190 inhabitants. The dimensions of the land mass, dragged stones and vegetation, as a result of heavy rainfall are calculated such that can reach 800 meters long and 700 wide. “It is of immense dimensions, and quite tremendous.” I’ve never seen one this big slide,” claimed yesterday Esteban Faci, geologist of the Government of Navarre, in an initial field assessment. Continuous rains, during January and February, along with the snowmelt, are behind this spectacular landslide, which began about three or four weeks, according to Ismael Amatriain. As if it were a glacier, the tongue of land, rocks and vegetation has shifted gradually from the hillside, taking about six or seven fields of wheat and barley crops with it. It has also destroyed three rural roads; sometimes breaking them so dramatically that you could see a stretch perfectly, you can see where the next, 10 or 15 feet had moved. In addition, roads, are covered by tons of earth in places, and have large and deep cracks. The council has sealed off many of these roads, making access totally impassable. The landslide also destroyed a cattle track that crossed the region.
Giant holes, manifesting as sinkholes, landslides or cracks in the Earth, are opening up all over the world and swallowing homes, buildings, roads and sometimes even people. Why is this happening? Is the crust of the earth becoming more unstable? Or is something else at work?
According to Val’s warnings, HAARP activity and underground explosions have the potential to weaken the Earth’s crust and cause it to fail. Following is a discussion about how HAARP works and how it and the underground explosions are adversely affecting the Earth’s crust.
HAARP is a field of 360 antennas, linked together to operate as one enormous antennae. Each one produces 10,000 watts. When all are working together they produce 3.6 million watts collectively.
The HAARP antennae broadcast radio waves (which is electromagnetic radiation traveling as waves in the frequency range of about 10 kHz to 300 GHz). It broadcasts them up into the atmosphere, or down into the earth. When shot up, the antennas heat the ionosphere and bounce the powerful radio waves back to earth. The radio waves penetrate the Earth, bounce back and forth inside the Earth a couple of times, heat up the groundwater, and cause Earthquakes. When aimed down, these powerful waves are shot directly into the earth, causing the same scenario, but more powerfully so. It is believed that when shot directly into the ground they hit fault lines and cause violent earthquakes. This is what we know. Val has added that this activity powerfully and negatively affects the Earth’s core as well. He has also told us that the Earth’s core has been displaced. The other cause of this trouble according to Val is underground explosions which are the result of secret testing of new technologies (Val has not given more information about the explosions, than that).
Because the Earth’s core has been displaced, when the underground explosions occur, or HAARP radio waves penetrate the Earth, it causes the solid core to bounce back and forth within the liquefied magma and hit the mantle. This in turn causes harmonic tremors.
A harmonic tremor is a long sustained energy wave, or a constant long period tremor. Usually the presence of harmonic tremors means that magma or water/fluid is moving in the crust of the Earth, generating a constant seismic rumble. (People don’t feel these types of tremors; they are only measurable by seismic instruments.)
Starting during the last quarter of 2011 we have been seeing long, continuous harmonic tremors showing up on every seismograph in the world (indicating the entire Earth’s crust is undergoing harmonic tremors). They spread around the globe in a chronological progression, transferring from plate to plate, as if a domino effect is taking place.
Sometimes the tremors encircle the planet and get back to where they started before the first round of tremors subside. This is a very serious situation because if such tremors continue they can build up and grow exponentially. Val has likened this to a group of foot soldiers marching across a bridge without breaking step. If that were to happen the Earth’s crust could break up (and we could find ourselves in another Atlantis scenario). There were a number of times when Val’s crews had to intervene to stop that from happening.
There is a second danger Val warned us about. If these tremors were to occur again and again (which is exactly what has been happening) they could weaken the Earth’s crusts due to fatigue (think of bending a piece of metal back and forth over and over again until it breaks). With so many failures occurring in the Earth’s crusts it seems that may be exactly what is happening!

Helen, I think the tectonic activity we are seeing is part of the solution.
not part of the problem.
If haarp has facilitated the what we are seeing, Gaia, is responding in kind.
I do believe that it was only a matter of time before these changes occurred anyway.
All humanity is doing is moving the timing of them forward.
I understand Helen. That the activities of man are driving the ecological changes,
And the ecological changes will put an end to theses activities by cleansing the surface of that which is driving them.
We are so arrogant as to think we can destroy Gaia,
We are not even close.
And still, the messages from on high are delivered with ever increasing urgency to this community.
To look inside ourselves and awaken to our light.
So that we can make an energetic difference, and ease the burden on Gaia.
And instead we call it fear porn.
We are either part of the solution, or part of the problem.
This reminds me of a conversation I had with my son years ago......we were talking about oil running out in the earth.......I asked him....what if the oil has a purpose that we haven't thought of......earth is a body.....we all know what would happen if we sucked all the blood out of a body or all the lymph fluid.....we'd die....
We went on to imagine that maybe oil does for the earth what we use it for at times.....lubrication.....and how that might impact the natural movement of the earth's crust......neither of us knew if our ideas had any scientific merit.....but we imagined that earthquakes would increase with lack of lube.....
I ended up making a joke about the possibility of the earth imploding once all the oil had been extracted....sort of like a plastic pop bottle imploding if you extract the soda without allowing air in....
Time to run technological ideas past indigenous peoples before we embark on any new "extracting resources" of Mother Gaia I think.....we have all lived too long without considering the consequences of our actions....
Love Lori
Actually Lori, this is a observation may not be too far from the truth.
I've actually heard that natural gas also plays a part in lubricating the movement of the crust on the mantle.
Yes, Lori and Peter, these are good points by both of you. Thanks.
Hi Peter,
Thanks for commenting. However, sinkholes are not a result of tectonic activity, and it is not tectonic activity that caused these specific events.
We just need a sink hole under the HARRP devices this will solve the problem.
Unfortunately, Eion, it doesn't work like that.
"We just need a sink hole under the HARRP devices this will solve the problem."
That is the best solution ever! LOL
Exactly what is happening Patty and we can look for worse to come, these sink holes are only Gaia's warning to stop it...I hadn't read this, just got around to it I just asked you to post it here as Val wanted it out as far as it could go and anyone is welcome to re-post please give Patty Brown credit as she's the only other authorized channel at this time for Cmdr Val Thor .I've authorized and Patty flip your copyright on it copy mine and replaced my name with yours. Also put a Val Thor authorized channel by Valana..I'm not having more of our work stolen...and given credit to another for Val's work as he will not have that he will quit us!. We got a mad commander up there about some things happening to me.
Patty and I have not been able to find any active seismic reports they cut us off, stopped showing them as probably others besides us were talking about it and getting people to understand what is going on. Val is telling me it's still worsening... they have the seismic readings there on the ship... Val has said in past that if they continue over such and such a period there is danger of the crust giving way in a wide area that could sink cities...now that we have here on earth the ability to use the ...what is it Patty? Wish I"d studied science... we could harm the tech ships and Val has said he will not send crew on suicide missions here so we are not getting the help we could get..he's asked me to say before that any ships going down into the ocean please leave them alone they are on rescue mission to try to help us and steady the core and the plates.. he's also asked that they do not touch the ....monoliths? Is that a word? Patty help me out here... give that to Patty...these are sounding devices they are planting in deep water oceans...deep in water in oceans! <g> This is to replace the soundings of the large sea mammals that have had nervous breakdowns from the Navy sonar...which Val has been warning against since 1990's when we came on the Internet with his writings. this was prior to the Dolphins going crazy and beaching their young,.....we were much into saving the Dolphins back then. Val used to say "Tell them there's no Soviet navy anymore to watch for! <g> They evidently don't know the Soviets have fallen to Capitalism!" LOL I don't know why they even try to help this motley crew down here on the planet we not worth the trouble. Keep a watch on our groups wherever we are I'll be giving last minute info on the evac soon as it's ordered if they do it, if they can't do it in time some of us ..look for us and we'll be gone they'll get us. Val will get me if he doesn't have time for anyone else in a black eagle and we'll meet the fleets the other side of the rim...and Val and I are going back home to our home on the side of Venus Mountain on the Crystal Planet. Yeah we have a home there, that's where I'm from. don't like to sound new agy but it's time I said it, I don't have anymore fingerprints than Val Thor...if one don't know what that means well sorry! <g> I'm not telling it!....but my name ain't Deena! <ROTFL> Minister Donn told me to tell them if they mention Denus from Venus again to me that I feel sorry for that poor broad as she can't have my man he may have had a one night stand with her when he was lonely and missing me but he's all mine so eat your heart out Deena weiner! we got kids spread out from the old Atlantis to the new we can't count and we forget about them, got a few of ours from Atlantis on my site one or two of them right here on this group, they just don't say anything, just watching and shaking their heads...
Hellen you are exactly right and Lori you hit the nail on the head about the lubricant...Val has said it's like if you drain all the oil of a car and continue to expect it to run it won't run long, the vibration will shake something loose and finally it will shake itself apart and that's exactly what is happening now... now they are after deep drilling oil on another level..not concerned with the future generation just how much money can we make now? They can't even spend it in a life time but they just want to make it..obsession, no regard for future generations...
I have to politely disagree with whoever said it would happen anyway I don't think so if we had taken care of mother Gaia like the indigenous people did I think we would be in much better shape today. My late husband, after he retired, used to go out in Missouri and pull herbs to sell...and he went with others one was Native American and he told them when they pulled something out of the ground in harvesting the herb to take time to replace don't just throw it away. He didn't pick as much as they did but he replaced everything he displaced...
Reminds me of something I read about an old man walking along the beach and he'd pick up a str fish and throw it back in the water that the waves had washed hundreds up on the beach...someone told him, there's hundreds of them dying what good will it do to pick up just a few and toss them back in, and the old man said, each one is one that didn't die on the beach and it's important to that one...
Valana, I made the comment elsewhere about what is happening with respect to tectonic activity. And that it would have happened anyway.
I agree with you that if we had taken better care of Mother she wouldn't need to take such steps as she is taking now. That is not in dispute.
However I Am sure that our ancestors also saw there fair share of ecological excitement.
The tectonic plates are constantly moving. and eventually that movement will lead to instability. '
If we hadn't seen fit to plunder and attack the earth and her resources, and if our attitude towards each other was more vibrationally favourable, we probably wouldn't be seeing the symptoms we are seeing now, at this time.
However, over time, the movement of the various plates against each would create that which we are seeing now. It has been a part of the planets history. It is a consequence of a living, dynamic Gaia.
we must also take into consideration that the angelic realm has been at various times, pleading with light workers of the world to do their part. To put a greater effort in raising humanities vibration. To reduce the vibrational deficit between us and an ascending Gaia.
