It’s amazing what millions and millions and millions of years of erosion can do.

Nah. Remeber algoron spoke about how the erf has a fever and temps in the million degree range at it’s core? Simple physics——expansion. And here I thought the Grand Canyon was a giant crack in the erf.

Obviously this is the result of millions of selfish Americans running lawnmowers, weed eaters and SUVs.

Since this is Wyoming, it’s probably Cheney’s fault, something to do with fracking or Halliburton, or both.

Or twenty years of glow-bull warming. Oh, wait. I forgot that glow-bull warming has been on vaca. But that must make me a denier/doubter/skeptic/liar. Thank you very much, I wear the mantle proudly.

Reminds me of part of the old cowboy limerick about Nell and Gutwrench Pete.
The land was gouged for miles around
Where poor Nell's a$$ had drug the ground.

Contrary to some sensational claims swirling about on social media, the crack is not an opening to the underworld... Did they actually confirm this, or are they just operating on assumptions? ;-)

Yep, I’m expecting the Sierra Club or some other nutcase environmental group to blame Big Oil for this one.

"Apparently, a wet spring lubricated across a cap rock. Then, a small spring on either side caused the bottom to slide out. He estimated 15 to 20 million yards of movement." 20 million cubic yards is a fairly respectable pile of dirt. So where is it? I don't see a nearby river choked with sediment carrying it away.
