Incredible volcano video

[wraithfodder]

Unfortunately the news is full of awful stuff, like poor Natasha Richardson (RIP, sigh) and the morons at AIG (grrrrr). Anyway, here's a fantastic video of a volcano erupting underwater off the coast of Tonga in the South Pacific Ocean today.

There are some truly incredible large photos of the eruption at http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2009/03/undersea_eruptions_near_tonga.html

Sitting here in Oregon surrounded by dormant volcanoes has never bothered me very much,
BUT
when we lived on islands in the So. Pacific, it definitely did given the fact that we were surrounded by water at every turn........
