Scientists have captured a mysterious hum coming from deep inside the Earth, but they are still no closer to working out what it is.

It has long been known that the Earth constantly generates a low-frequency vibrational signal.

The first attempt to detect this hum was made in 1959, but it wasn't until 1998 that scientists finally proved its existence.

Since then, there have been hundreds of attempts to record the Earth's hum, but they have all been made using seismometers on land.

All I know is that Global Warming is making the humming louder. And that’s bad. Really bad.

It’s Satan humming a tune because he knows McCain will soon be there.

Maybe there are just plain, material things about Earth that we don’t yet understand; and the “hum” is a product of one or some of those.

I don’t believe in ‘hell’; but if it existed, I don’t think it would be a physical realm rooted in Earth, any more than ‘Heaven’ is.

Get your logic together.

It’s interesting that people from biblical times thought of hell as being deep inside the earth without knowledge of what’s actually there.

This “sounds” like it’s right up your alley.

Or mountain.

Or somewhere.

Or maybe deep in the Earth there’s this big Mazda going “Hmmmmmmmmm”.

Awesome ... brings back such wonderful memories.

I discovered F4 starting at issue #2, and never missed an issue for the next 8-9 years.

If Stan Lee happens to be reading this, I am available to write a GREAT SCRIPT for a the revival of the FOUR after their previous movie disasters.
