Here in San Diego The Earth Seems to be Moving - Is God Pissed off at Us Again?
How long will it be before I hear that God is mad at us and that's why La Jolla is sinking -- Mt. Soledad is the site of the big cross here that we tax payers pay for --- About once every 2 or 3 years another round of legal cases surround the cross -

LA JOLLA, California (CNN) -- More than 100 homes in an upscale San Diego community were evacuated after a sinkhole about 60 yards wide pulled the earth from beneath a three-lane road and some of the multimillion-dollar homes that adorn it.

A landslide devours the pavement in an upscale La Jolla neighborhood Wednesday.

Mayor Jerry Sanders declared a state of emergency, asking California and the federal government to help the La Jolla community recover from the Wednesday landslide. As of Thursday morning, he had already received offers of aid from legislators, the governor's office and the White House, he said.

Officials warned for at least two weeks that the ground was shifting beneath the hillside community along Soledad Mountain Road.

Holes were drilled into the unsettled hillside to investigate the cause and magnitude of the shift, which earlier cracked a water line, and according to some media reports, began cracking Soledad Mountain Road in July.

On Wednesday, a 20-foot-deep chasm opened beneath the road and homes. Holli Weld told San Diego's KGTV that she was walking her son to preschool when the street collapsed.
