    When I worked 1700 feet below lake Erie at Sterling salt in Cleveland, I would put my hand on the newly exposed salt and have the satifaction of knowing that NO ONE on planet earth has ever touched this before me!

      I work down in Morton for about a month as a construction contractor in a very impressive seems like the people that work there have their own language or dialect you know that sounds like they're from West Virginia or somewhere down south it's really unusual

    This reporter is glorifying the environment in that mine . He wouldn't feel that way if he had to be in that day in day out . What amazes me is how all that water stays up and how the water stays fresh and not inhibited by the salt .

      There's nothing wrong with working in a salt mine. The miners probably make more money than you do. That's why they have second and third generations working there. The mine is separated from the lake by 2000 feet of rock (as the video says) so no mystery there.

    I pray that there is never an earthquake nor tremor in that area! I can't imagine cities and highways sinking as a result of the collapse of those shafts!

    That's weird because there's also an "abandoned 'salt mine'" 1500 ft under Detroit thats the size of an entire city. I know there's tunnels and buildings under and in lake Michigan, tunnels in lake Erie, there's so many underground tunnels and if you search historical news paper archives you can find articles about the first discovery of a lot of these tunnels made by a prior race and I believe we've just been reusing them.

      Nonsense. Why would a salt mine company mine salt where it was already mined? I assure you, modern men made those tunnels.

      Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. Make a living doing something else. Lots of jobs out there. Make a living developing an alternative to salt. Make a living cleaning up waste instead of making it.
