RE: dec 2012 - TheGuru - 10 November 2012
Caught a program on TV last week on Discovery Military called How The Earth Was Made, it was all about Iceland and the volcanoes and how the big one erupted in the 1800s spewing millions of tonnes of gas into the atmosphere.
Apparently it killed milions of people world wide and stopped crops growing and all that kinda shit.
The worrying thing is after the recent quakes up there the fecking thing is showing unrest.

Most don't even know about lisbon disaster back in the 1700's and the tsunami that followed it reached the bristol channel that's where the huge boulders have come from
I will try and find a link if I can

Crackattoa, spelt wrong I think. Was a massive volcano that exploded in the 1800's. That was just one, amagine 8 or 20?
RE: dec 2012 - Pagan-Mist - 10 November 2012
The ones we have to watch for is the El Hierro which if itgoes could dump 20 square miles of rock into the sea creating a tsunami which would reach us in a couple of hours and america in 8 or so hours but the biggest threat is yellowstone that would kill millions and send us back to the stone age if were lucky enough to survive

2012 is IMO nothing to worry about. If they were so advanced (witch we all now know they were) they wouldn't have two much trouble in jotting down a few warnings or records of the destruction. The ancient Sumerians discovered niberu, infact when NASA sent that gold record player up into space in the 70's (when the world was fools into believing that Egypt was the cradle of creation) on this record made of gold they put among other things ancient Sumerian texts! The Sumerians believed that their Demi gods came from niberu and visited earth every time the planet came by on it's long orbit.

I'm a bit confused.
1800AD or 1800BC.
Reason why I ask is http://www.historyorb.com/events/date/1800 lists all the major events of the year and there isn't any mention about big "bangs".

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1883_eruption_of_Krakatoa
Quote:The combination of pyroclastic flows, volcanic ashes and tsunamis had disastrous results in the region. There were no survivors from 3,000 people located on the island of Sebesi, about 13 km (8.1 mi) from Krakatoa. Pyroclastic flows killed around 1,000 people at Ketimbang on the coast of Sumatra some 40 km (25 mi) north from Krakatoa. The official death toll recorded by the Dutch authorities was 36,417, although some sources put the estimate at 120,000 or more. Many settlements were destroyed, including Teluk Betung and Ketimbang in Sumatra, and Sirik and Serang in Java. The areas of Banten on Java and the Lampung on Sumatra were devastated. There are numerous documented reports of groups of human skeletons floating across the Indian Ocean on rafts of volcanic pumice and washing up on the east coast of Africa, up to a year after the eruption. Some land on Java was never repopulated; it reverted to jungle and is now the Ujung Kulon National Park.
Ignore that Paul, i thought you meant krakatoa
