    Earth has a new A- hole

    I just heard that a massive one formed in the middle of Australia!

    Would be a shame to just fill it in...

    Employ an engineering firm to build a massive underground building, the digging's already been done. Maybe add some thick windows and lighting for some interesting mineral deposits and create a tourist attraction.

    If by 'interesting mineral deposits' you mean boring limestone and sedimentary sands, then yes - awesome tourist attraction.

    If by 'massive underground building' you mean 'Guatemalan death trap', then yes - definately an interesting building

    WAPOL and the CSIRO are working on a genetic engineering project in order to have a pineapple appropriate size to insert whenever they are having a bad day.

    It was aparently a stormwater leakage that went unchecked combined with a natural hole.

    P.S I've seen bigger holes in Innaloo Shopping Centre Car Park!
