Problems[edit]

This may take some sorting out. The article states that the Warm Mineral Springs is "the largest warm water mineral spring in the world." It also states that the spring flow is 9 million gallons per day, which appears to be supported by several web sites. However, this site says it is the "second largest warm spring in the western hemisphere." The Florida Geological Survey report puts the springs' flow at 20 million gallons per day. There may also be some confusion over which archaeological finds were found in Warm Mineral Springs and which in Little Salt Spring, another water filled sinkhole a few miles away. On this site there is a link (at the bottom, that says "Click here for a text from the cavers archive about a little history of the sites") which downloads a text file. The text file indicates that Colonel Royal dove in both sinkholes, and that the 11,000 year old human remains came from Little Salt Spring. It is unclear in that text file which sinkhole yielded the skull with brain matter. We really need to find some reliable sources. -- Donald Albury 03:14, 25 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

2013 closure - NPOV violation[edit]

The last few paragraphs of this article obviously violate WP:NPOV (especially the reference to "the incredible incompetence of the City of North Port Commissioners"!). Not having the time or inclination at the moment to research the closure dispute and rework the passage in question, I have split it off as its own new section of the article and added the "POV-section" template.

Why can't we just reword the sentence and remove the reference to incredible incompetence? Aemonday (talk) 15:18, 30 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
