I heard from a friend back in Michigan that the Cornish Pump Museum in Iron
Mountain is in danger. It seems the museum, which is located on an old
mining site, and houses a giant Cornish pump, is in danger of falling into
the mine. The cap on the old shaft collapsed, and now a 1500 foot deep hole
threatens to spread. Does anybody have more info on this, and does anyone
have any idea of emmergency funding the museum could pursue, for I
understand they do not have the money to cap the mine. (Here's a new
category for the disaster preparedness plan, subsidance and mine collapse)
