Is This Really Happening In New Zealand?

White Island Volcano in New Zealand is acting in a very similar way as
Yellowstone Volcano. Both volcano's are prone to "hydrothermal explosions". This
indicates massive explosive powers brought on by water which would kill all
surrounding life within a large vicinity. Later would come the lava.

Over the last few months a substantial lake has formed in the active crater
at White Island. This is the largest lake to have formed within this crater
and has recently drowned the active vents. As a consequence future eruptions
will occur through the crater lake and, if ejected by eruptions, moderate
volumes of water could flood down the Main Crater floor towards the sea. This is
a significant change in the nature of volcanic hazards on the island. The
current lake volume is large enough that it will influence the next phase of
eruptive activity from the volcano and result in a new hazard to people visiting
the island.

The question has to be asked "Are volcano's around the world waking up"? If
yes, why!

My history books suggest that the supply of V****** ,* usually used to placate the gods, is drying up, so to speak.**

Yup, sacrifice's to the Goddess and Marriages to the Earth have all but dried up so she is a tad annoyed with us and plans to bring us back to the "Old Ways" by forming active volcano's under each and every church in the world....................

Either that or this kind of thing is going on all the time but we don't usually hear about it, you decide..................
