Tuzla on CNN
CNN's World View covered Tuzla a city in Bosnia Hercegovina which has the only salt lake in Europe, and massive salt mines some of which are still being used. All but a couple teaspoons of salt I ate in my year in Bosnia came from Tuzla. I had some salt from the mines at Ston and some from a Greek place for salt, those came in those fency schmency little grinders. One of my dead ancestors owned Ston for a time.
Anyway they interviewed the mayor of Tuzla and showed film of the town which is lovely despite the war damage and the fact the city is sinking.
I as usual can't get the link I want today, so this has to do. Warning lots of nerdy complicated engineering stuff.

and until I can get what I want on CNN, this will do medjuvrijeme. This site has lovely photos of Tuzla.
