Catching a volcano just before it explodes isn't always as easy as, say, predicting the weather.

That same day, I issued my warning in a post titled &amp;quot;Paroxysmal-colossal eruption of an Indonesian volcano&amp;quot; on the following prediction websites:&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;www.oroborusforum.com/viewtopic.php?t=8192&lt;br&gt;&amp;amp;&lt;br&gt;www.prophecies.us/yabb/YaBB.pl?num=1191150116&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;At 2am on Oct 3rd, I named Mount Kelud as the specific volcano that will explode. This was a full 2 weeks before vulcanologists announced that an eruption of Mount Kelud was imminent.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;For more than a month now, I've been telling anyone who will listen that Kelud will produce the largest explosion since Krakatoa blew itself to smithereens back in 1883.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Just check my post at the abovementioned websites to confirm that I actually predicted this event 2 weeks before the experts (or anybody else) did.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Scientists can occasionally benefit from heeding psychic predictions. (I know because I'm a Ph.D. scientist myself). I just hope that the loss of life won't be as great as it was when Kelud erupted in 1919. -Syzygy</description></item><item><title>To catch a volcano</title><link>http://cosmiclog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/11/05/449662.aspx#450623</link><pubDate>Tue, 06 Nov 2007 14:30:11 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:450623</guid><dc:creator>Bev Eide, Woodstock, Ga</dc:creator><description>Does anyone know if there is any monitering at Yellowstone where we have a mega-volcano that could wipe out most of the intermountain basin?</description></item><item><title>To catch a volcano</title><link>http://cosmiclog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/11/05/449662.aspx#453307</link><pubDate>Wed, 07 Nov 2007 15:51:08 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:453307</guid><dc:creator>Arctodus</dc:creator><description>Psychics are the equivalent of using tea leaves to predict blizzards when it comes to volcanic eruptions. Kelud's cycle is well-known, and it was about due anyway, having gone 17 years since its last eruption. With all respect to Syzygy, he would serve mankind better by using his psychic talents at the blackjack table to obtain winnings to fund volcanic research projects.</description></item><item><title>To catch a volcano</title><link>http://cosmiclog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/11/05/449662.aspx#902694</link><pubDate>Wed, 16 Apr 2008 16:53:43 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:902694</guid><dc:creator>Ahmad M., Manitoba</dc:creator><description>I seriously doubt that if the volcano has already erupted recently (1990 is fairly recent geologically speaking) that there will be a Krakatoa sized eruption imminent. &amp;nbsp;Volcanos that go off with a big bang (like Pinatubo for example) usually are dorment for a few hundred to a few thousand years between eruptive cycles. &amp;nbsp;Not that there's no chance of having a cataclysmic life threatning eruption, &amp;nbsp;it's probably just going to be relativly small blast. </description></item><item><title>To catch a volcano</title><link>http://cosmiclog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/11/05/449662.aspx#1182540</link><pubDate>Thu, 03 Jul 2008 16:57:29 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1182540</guid><dc:creator>C A K</dc:creator><description>Yellowstone is a &amp;quot;Super Volcano which had it's last eruption about 640,000 years ago.&lt;br&gt;When it blows again, it will most likely have a devastating impact on the continental United States.</description></item><item><title>To catch a volcano</title><link>http://cosmiclog.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2007/11/05/449662.aspx#1218771</link><pubDate>Thu, 24 Jul 2008 09:22:44 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1218771</guid><dc:creator>Gerald Tait   Folkston, Ga.</dc:creator><description>I find Volcano's very interesting.

Whitley Strieber's unknowncountry.com . Anything weird happening around the world he has it. As far as Syzygyjob.com Dr Jim Berkland has made a life study of earthquakes and the effectes it has on animals the moon the tides and planets. He is not always right but than who is? Some of his ideas are interesting.
