Volcanic eruptions were to blame for the “year without a summer” just about 200 years ago in 1816.

You sure it’s not a part of global warming?

Sacrificing virgins, is waste of a natural resource.
I say we should sacrifice some of the AGW crowd

Just one question. How many gallons of CO2 did it release? Did algore buy counter-acting carbon credits for the good of mankind? (Okay, two questions.)

Krakatoa was responsible. Between Java and Sumatra. It is neat flying at night along the Indonesian island chain...you can see the glow of one volcano after another as you fly along.
This sounds a bit smaller and may not have an impact on the global climate.

Praying for those impacted by this.

And, no. We have no evidence at this time indicating the erruption was triggered by Obama operatives to incinerate records that, if revealed, would have incontrovertibly condemned the president for criminal identity fraud.

Krakatoa was responsible.

Krakatoa Katy, She ain’t no lady,
when she starts to shake her sarong,
Now Katys out in full array
For Mighty Mouse has saved the day,
for Kathy, Kathy, Krakatoa Katy.
