(AGI) Tokyo- In addition to the tsunami and current nuclear alarm, the Shinmoedake volcano has erupted after two weeks of dormancy. Ash and projectiles have been spotted in the air four kilometers away local witnesses say. The 1,421 meter high volcano reawakened after 52 years last January, again on March 1, after which followed two weeks of inactivity. It is likely that the acted as a catalyst for the eruption; meanwhile authorities have maintained a level 3 warning (out of 5) and have blocked access to the volcano. . .

There is so much disastrous news on Japan, possibly it should have its own forum.

5. LBN and GD crossposts are not dupes.
If it has already been posted in GD, then it is a dupe. If it was only in LBN, not a dupe.

8. that, and many of us do not even go to LBN anymore
I used to "live" there, until I got tired of looking at every other thread locked:rofl:

GD is often overrun with dupes, but it's easier to weed thru them than to scroll endlessly thru all the locked ones in LBN:)

17. First thing I check when I log on
"More news." If more people checked it we'd have less dupes around here.

7. ROFL....
So, as an athiest....


You are asking people to please waste their time on meaningless and worthless rituals which do no good instead of focusing on something that might actually help?

13. Wait a minute Scuba. You said "pray" and not "pray to god/deity". Prayer can be a focused stream of
consciousness sent to those in need.

Not the same thing as beseeching a theoretical omnipotent being to effect changes.
