Ok. Then can we claim for flood insurance? No? Then so what? Why do we have insurance?

[@rorygay3529]

That's called spurious correlation.

[@erickane7093]

Heavy rains, I don’t think so! It’s so funny, theory upon theory. Just keep the money rolling in.

But defintley nothing to do with that geothermal facility right next door to fissure 8!

Climate change Propagandists

[@greghelton4668]

This has very little to do with climate change. You’re the propagandist.

[@davec3651]

Wrong. I rubbed the secret rock that turned out to be Pele's.. clip.

[@legalizefreedom451]

It wasn't Pele?

[@user-hu2jn7yt6g]

Keep it real, Mahalo.

I'm just a hobbist about the theme. Maybe/I think they would like to say that: 1 Liter water (10 cmX10 cmX10 cm=1000 cubic cm) = 1750 Liter steam (1.750.000 cubic cm). Too much rain, to much ground water. When water contacts with high temperature in the deep it can causing incredible pressure what can cause deformations, fissures on the surface or detonations. It's a closed system. Remember the growing pond of water inside Halemʻumaʻu crater after. It was 160 feet (49 meter) deep 125 million gallons water in the depth what could we see. Never seen a water before inside this crater. For example: this is the main reason why filtering water in the oil storage tanks. When the oil got fire, the water boils up inside and blows up the whole storage tank.
