This is how you flush an entire lake down a hole. An exploratory drilling exercise miscalculates the location of a salt mine while drilling through a lake bed. The mine is hit, and the oil derek, the mine, the lake, and a few barges are a total loss.

    Clockwise down under, or anywhere south of the equator. Counter-clockwise north of the equator. It is caused by a phenomenon known as the Correolis (-2sp) Effect.

    It sucks when your the greedy guy who fucks up. I'm waiting for it to happen to the Finger Lakes. Now they want to pump natural gas into the salt mines.
