Why the lightening? Geaux.....
There's a lot of fine particles (ash) moving about and that builds a strong enough static charge to have to ground itself. And then, lightshow!!

Are you in O&G? I have several geologists in my family.
No. I've tried a few times, but teaching is my gig. Playing to my strengths.
Can I have a job, tho? I know where to find oil in the Eagle Ford.
I read a paper once on getting oil from volcanoes.

Do you think Gollum should have combusted before hitting the lava in Mount Doom?

Has time expired yet? How limited are we?

I will ask my old man. I tried to take a few geology classes in college but I hated them. Lots of hippies that liked to go on "field trips". Now that I look back on it I was probably pretty stupid not to change my major...

Is it mega watt lightning, or just run of the mill lightning.
2nd question: In winter down in S Louisiana, on the rare occasions it snows, there is thunder and lightning. Of course, too cloudy to see the lightening, but you can hear the thunder. What's up with that shite?

Actually, I don't know. A budding volcanologist once told me that your skin is so cool compared to the lava, that it will immediately cool on contact with your SKIN. It'd burn your hair and your clothes.
I think they may have been joshing me, but you've seen people wet their finger then stick it in molten lead. Same thing, right?
Anyone want to be a guinea pig?

Anything. Still a few minutes. There's a pretty diverse pool of questions already.

No, I haven't. Sounds like some stupid shite white people do.

If I rolled GeauxChrisSports into a lava flow, how long until he would die?

I don't know if there's a difference. I'm not a meteorologist (at least in that regard) or a physicist (at least in that regard)
Same thing? If the particles of ice are dry enough?

WHEW
Could Dr Evils plan of detonating a nuclear warhead somewhere near the earths core actually result in all the volcanoes erupting, covering the earth in liquid hot mag-ma?
If this has been asked already, I apologize.

What's the closest (known) volcano to Louisiana, and is it close enough that we ever really have to worry about it. Hurricanes suck enough to also have volvanoes to deal with.
Also, how much do you love this gif? Even though it's not a volcano, I feel like it's similar:

Yes. And if you did it then pulled him out and he died from untreated burns, it would be murder in the 3rd degree. (get it? get it?)

dave chapelle had casual sex with an erupting volcano in one of his skits. it appeared consensual, but as you probably know, volcanoes are inanimate objects incapable of speech or free will. at a minimum, do you agree that 1.) there needs to be more awareness about this issue, and 2.) sex with a volcano is probably not possible due to the extreme temperatures of the flowing magma?

Pretty sure with all the heat and power down there at the core and the shear size, a nuke blast would be equivalent to a queef.
