The erruption of Mt. Asuma was surprisinly not covered by International Media at least as far as Australia went. The only real footage was a Handycam shot in TOKYO (its cloverfield all over again) - floating around the Internet. This seems to be the utter opposite of the two Month-24 Hour coverage of the Destruction and cleanup of the Trade Towers which were broadcast world wide.

This could be the reason for the difference in airtime: "There was no major damage in the volcano's sparsely populated vicinity, officials said."

Just sayin'.

Oh, also, and the thing with millions not being killed and Tokyo not being destroyed. That could make a difference.

I had to double-check to make sure this wasn't the start of a D20 Modern PbP that I'd stumbled into.

Truthfully, I wondered the same thing. Maybe he's spending too much time at abovetopsecret.com...

That is because the Volcano is not what destroyed Tokoyo. The Giant Draconic Monster that was awoken by the volcano is what destroyed Tokoyo.

And that happens often enough that it is not really major news. :P

Do remember that the Chinese character for "trouble" is two women under the same roof.

From my experience - the Chinese were on to something. :P

What parallel reality? We heard the eruption as far away as Darwin. That amount of noise must have blown down buildings in Tokyo.

No. The explosion you heard was Reon Kaneda doing a nude photo shoot.

Shall I point out that you all misspelled her last name?

Check the Url! Reon Kadena is her name!

I am entertained by the drop off in longterm earthquake activity, yet increased intensity when they happen, backed by a rising caldera pressure...Now you know why the US Government has built a Colony at the south Pole for Gods chosen few...

Which (false) god?

More afraid of the safety of Earth.

On the other hand, more than a decade of Stargate-activity, and the world still stands. They are making a good job.
