Apparently they dismissed global warming concerns.
I remember it like it was yesterday.
Many fine online tours of Pompei and Herculaneum. Amazing stuff.
An appropriate time to pull up YouTube and watch Pink Floyd’s “Echoes” live from Pompeii. Turn It Up...
Its been said that God caused the eruption because Pompeii was a heindonistic, homosexual depraved village.
I was stationed in Naples, Italy from 1983 to 1986. Visited Pompei ruins many times and was always fascinated with the ruins and history of this historic event. Also got to watch the excavation of Herculaneum over these years and was amazed to see archaeologists do their work.
Herculaneum (Ercolono) also destroyed and there you can see the preserved skeletons of the citizens who took shelter down at the harbor warehouses. Pompeii doesn’t have that.
The entire Live At Pompeii movie is awesome! I also liked the part where the different band members are working in the studio on sound effects, riffs, etc... for The Dark Side Of The Moon. Great stuff!
Ah, yes, I remember it as if it were yesterday.
Was there a few months ago. When you see those skeletons at Herculaneum it really hits home as to how terrible an event it must have been.
There’s a new DVD coming out with David Gilmour playing at Pompeii.
Excellent, I appreciate the tip!
What a fascinating video. I was raised at the base of Mt. Shasta and almost bought a farm at the base of Mt. St. Helen. Went fishing in the caldera of Medicine Lake and honeymooned in Yellowstone. I’ve always feared that my luck would run out. So now I live in the Midwest.

An excellent book indeed.
And as a recommended sidekick, a book entitled “The Last Time When” by George Gipe.
“Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun”
