Russian villagers baffled by missing lake
'I was thinking, well, America has finally got to us,' one woman says
Updated: 9:57 a.m. ET May 20, 2005
MOSCOW - A Russian village was left baffled on Thursday after its lake
disappeared overnight.
NTV television showed pictures of a giant muddy hole bathed in summer
sun, while fishermen from the village of Bolotnikovo looked on
disconsolately.
It is very dangerous. If a person had been in this disaster, he would
have had almost no chance of survival. The trees flew downwards, under
the ground, said Dmitry Zaitsev, a local Emergencies Ministry
official interviewed by the channel.
Officials in Nizhegorodskaya region, on the Volga river east of
Moscow, said water in the lake might have been sucked down into an
underground water-course or cave system, but some villagers had more
sinister explanations.
I am thinking, well, America has finally got to us, said one old
woman, as she sat on the ground outside her house.

plain folks of the land will reach their heart's
