That mountain is steep. Real steep.

The pyroclastic flow will come down fast.

I wonder what the ratio of New Orleans residents who didn't leave when they had the chance will be as opposed to this group. I'll bet it's larger.

Correction, they ARE coming down fast. They've all been small (well, comparatively) so far, so no big deal... yet.


On a side note, Yangminshan, the dormant volcano right outside Taipei, is becoming more active. Now, scientists are predicting an eruption sometime between, eh, tomorrow and... er, 10,000 years from now.

The New Orleanians knew what was coming, whereas these people think they can dissuade the volcano with dances.

One has a quaint faith in government another has a quaint faith in buying off volcanoe gods... both die.
