My wife tells me that in the part of PA where she grew up, this sort of 
thing could happen (though she hadn't heard of anything on this scale 
there); in SW PA, coal rights under private property are mostly already 
owned by coal mining companies, and occasionally they can have a mine 
collapse that takes down part of the property above it.
