Note to self - never live near volcanoes.

[Bahbah]

It must be a lovely spot, the volcano notwithstanding, to have attracted so many settlements through the ages.

I have always felt that in a previous life, I lived and died in Pompei when Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD. I am series.

[Aetius]

I wonder when Vesuvius is due to erupt again?

Nobody's ever reported living and dying in The Bronx in a previous life. It's always someplace famous and cool.

Mysterious, huh?

[Vesuvian]

I didn't do it.

Not only that, all the people I know who "recover" past lives just happened to be kings or queens in those glamorous places. Nobody ever claims to have been an apprentice tanner with bad acne, living in hickville...

Re: "...discovered a Stone Age settlement covered in ash under the ruins of the ancient city of Pompei, indicating that the volcano Vesuvius engulfed the area in lava..."

Now that is what I call global warming! Funny I didn't know the oil and gas industrial complex was around that far back.

Live and learn.

"I wonder when Vesuvius is due to erupt again?"

Probably before Jan. 20, 2009...That so it will be Bush's fault

Pompei was covered in lava when Vesuvius erupted in 79 AD

Pompeii was NOT covered in lava but rather in ash.Lava would have destroyed completely all that neat stuff which renders the place a well stocked museum.

In my previous lives, I was a drunk. So in my present life, I only drink on weekends or weekdays.

It must be a lovely spot, the volcano notwithstanding ...

One of the most beautiful in the world.

[Netizen]

BUT IN 4 YEARS THE SUPER VOLCANO IS GOING TO GET EVERYONE!

Did they actually state that or are you making that up?

[Netizen]

I read some book a long time back and the woman was supposed to have been a prostitute in the old west! Not exactly glamorous. Didn't say if she had ance though.

They never remember being a slave in a salt mine either. They're always Cleopatra or Ceasar.

Discovery ran a "Documentary" It was more like something from the producer of the day after tomarrarow. In it, Yellowstone became a super volcano and destroyed half the world.

The headline was... "This is a true story it just hasnt happened yet"
