Yes, I'm amazed that they can say the various volcanoes are not connected. It must come from a reductionist point of view. The idea of breaking things down to their smallest components to get an understanding of the whole. Dumb.
I've been watching all the activity in NZ and it seems the whole place is waking up. The Christchurch quakes were the beginning, but the whole plate boundary area from top to bottom is squirming. Of course this is happening right around the Pacific and other places.
They're even wondering whether there might be some broader relationship between quakes and volcanoes. Talk about not putting two and two together.
It's also clear from them saying they didn't get any signs before this eruption and it's unusual, blah, blah, that they haven't really got a clue about it. About as useful as tits on a bullfrog.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28089232 the idiots should read this thread, shouldnt they, lols
(instead they hate what i do here)
but seriously, you are correct in all you are saying, AC
M said days ago they should close the area, and she was right again
are the "experts" perhaps panicking and have no clue what to do atm?
btw i can see the ash on the coastal horizon, but cannot smell it yet
did you see the rotorua graphs i posted? likely a connection there too
local rotorua maori people who understand the big picture, and always have, say that the rotorua area is showing signs also, they said it months ago...
