The hole that appeared this afternoon in the highway at the entrance to Tel Aviv has really upset pre-holiday plans for a lot of people.  Apparently, the cause is the underground parking lot construction nearby and so it’s a local problem and can be solved but it makes one realize how fragile the ground we walk on is.  A little over a month ago another hole opened near Gezer, but that was connected to the tunnels of Biblical days.  The earth swallowed up a swimming pool and a man with it as if a reminder from history that even time is fluid.  How amazing that no one was hurt tonight!  How amazing that we adapt to the moving earth, no matter how much danger is around us.
