"The Disappearing Lake"When does a shallow lake suck up a $5 million Texaco drilling platform, a tugboat, eleven barges, a barge loading dock, part of an island, greenhouses, a house trailer, semi-trucks, tractors, a parking lot, tons of mud, trees, and an estimated 1.5 billion gallons of water?
Only when something goes
wrong, of course... like it did on Thursday, November 21, 1980, at
Lake Peigneur in southern Louisiana.
