"several million degree magma blasting out!"

I don't think it is that hot at the center of a volcano.

With all due respect, you are sounding like ALGORE.

Merry Christmas!

So when water temps in the area rise, expect them to blame CO2.

That was a pretty “HOT” joke.

Great laugh to start the day.

Of course this volcanic eruption was caused by global warming.

If only we’d given the nasty little dictators of the 3rd world billions of American dollars sooner, this wouldn’t have happened!!

Let me be the first to say “Bush’s fault”

(Actually, that is way cool!!)

Al Gore thinks that the interior of the Earth is several Mil. degrees.

The headline should read “West Mata Volcano” rather than “Malta.” Thanks to “posterchild” for the correction.

"Al Gore thinks that the interior of the Earth is several Mil. degrees."

ALGORE says that and more nonsense pertaining to a subject he does not understand, Science!
