Interesting. What do you think it should have looked like, for you to
believe it? :-)
Oh, and read the comments below the image. There are a few references
a way down.
Pretty scary tho...
According to other news stories I read on it, it *IS* man-made, just not
done with Photo-Shop.
Apparently the soil in the area is loose volcanic ash for several
hundred feet down and an underground chasm was washed out by leakage
from water & sewer pipes.
Tropical Storm Agatha came along and dumped enough water on the area to
finish the job.
