Scientists fear Hawaii volcano eruption

Lava could reach Hilo on the eastern side of the island of Hawaii and the Gold Coast resorts of Kona in the west, and inundate neighborhoods in the southwest rift zone above South Point -- possibly without much warning, said Peter Cervelli, a research geophysicist at the U.S. Geological Service's Hawaiian Volcano Observatory.

Na,Ku'u,Hami all live in the path

It may be months and years rather than days ,but still.

You Hawaiians went & pissed off Pele(?). Maybe next time you'll think twice about bitching about being Americans.

Hope you survive with zero problems.

 

[unclehobart]

*groan* Please don't start that up again.

 

[Professur]

Oh, but do.

Hasn't this volcano been flowing for a number of years? I seem to remember Ku'u mentioning that they took a trip to it and she may have even posted some pics.

Obviously, I hope it doesn't violently erupt but I would think that the people who live closeby would expect that sooner or later, if it the lava has been flowing for so much time and make the proper arrangements.

I thought that volcano has been 'oozing' for years. Can't be much pressure built up if it's constantly erupting...

BTW...I sincerely hope it doesn't erupt violently. My towel can't protect Ku'u, Na, and Miki all at the same time...

If I'm not mistaken, the volcano has been flowing continuously for close to a decade. *needs morning coffee so brain will wake up and remember these facts* We're not worried about it The lava flowing is a part of our life. If Pele wants to flow, she will, we just have to move.

and Gonz, for the record, Hawaiians don't piss off Pele, not intentionally anyway. It's the people who come here and desecrate (sp?) the land that piss her off.

 

[kuulani]

hehehehe, btw, who's hami?

Pele does what she does ... and America has nothing to do with her.


I have to say Gonz, this is a new low for you ... hard to believe this site would have an administrator who's as abusive and prone to be in attack-mode as you have become. What a shame.

Whatever. All i can say is that if anything happens to Hawaii i want kuulani & nalani to move in with me. The climate ain't the same but i can keep them warm.

ooohh .. be careful what you ask for

 

[HeXp£Øi±]

Don't think that i'm hoping for an eruption. Well maybe i am... of sorts.

 

[kuulani]

I don't mind the eruptions. They're a beautiful and powerful site to behold, not to say I wouldn't mind a trip to Alaska Those northern lights are enough to lure me away for awhile

 

[Jeslek]

Hm... I've never actually witnessed a volcano erupt.

 

[unclehobart]

Hm... I've never actually witnessed a volcano erupt.

I thought you said youve had girlfriends in the past?
