Gaia prefers SMART cars. Proof? Have you heard of any incidents at their museum? Me neither. Case closed.
SMART cars are built by Daimler-Benz. They have a very nice museum in Stuttgart. Highly recommended.

I assumed he was talking about the Lane micro-car museum in Nashville.

Sounds big enough to have lost my fire-arms in a unfortunate sink hole accident...!

Wow. Damn. I did a delivery to the Chevy dealer a couple years ago, and as I was leaving I stopped to look at a ZR-1 convertible in the showroom. I think the sticker price was $82,000.
Salesman comes up behind me and said, 'You'd look good in that.'
I flat out told him, no, I'd look like an idiot, because for that, I could buy the condo I live in, AND pay off the Malibu I did buy here.

That looks like the ‘62 at the top of the pile. Hopefully they’ll be able to pull her up with minimal damage. As for the others... :-\

Kentucky has the longest cave in the world.

Don’t worry! That will buff right out.
To: WXRGina
KY, being a rather wet state mostly underlain by a lot of limestone, has a great deal of karst topography, topography that’s characterized by numerous caves and sink holes. A sink hole most often forms when the limestone is dissolved out from under a particular location by water that has a high concentration of carbonic acid, which is formed by carbon dioxide dissolving in water.
To: WXRGina
Several years back we had a 5 inch rainfall in a few hours. That opened this Sinkhole which was connected to a creek in culvert buried about 45 feet down. It swallowed a Corvette parked in front of a local restaurant. It finally spit it out several months later from the far end of the culvert. All attempts to stop/repair the sinkhole failed.
This is what was left of the 'Vette.

I will miss the 62 Vette, the rest, not so much. Is this for real?

Proof of glowball warming or Bushs fault.
Obviously fracking.

Ever heard of Mammoth Cave?
To: rottndog
No structural reinforcing rods or cables, just bare concrete set on dirt.
Who designed this thing?

I wonder if they can turn this into a dual purpose attraction now?
Cars and caves.

You must add goodlooking women to the mix in order to draw a crowd and in Ky we may be a poor state in money but we are rich in goodlooking fast women. God blessed Ky.
