We all, of course, know how silly that is. After all, if there really were a sinkhole, how could they have built the chamber beneath the Matterhorn that houses Walt's frozen head? The lagoon, of course, is the reservoir for the liquid cooling system that maintains ideal cryogenic temperatures. They weren't able to work on the subs until the technology to cool the room without the large water supply could be perfected.

Don't they use the cooling pond over at DCA when the lagoon is empty? I thought that was one of the main reasons for building DCA. DCA is just a front for the cooling pond.
