        That is just exactly what their expressions in the first panel are shouting. You can deduce the whole context of the entire strip, just by looking at their faces and body language. Beautifully portrayed!

        It all adds insult to injury. They were trying to do something exciting and good for all of their friends, worked hard at it, thought they had succeeded… nearly got killed, got scared and skreee-scraped and battered and eardrum-punctured… and get no sympathy at all and hit with a smug visual-aids-included lecture as to why their own ignorance was what put them right square in the THOOOM! zone.

      I presume it’s just dumb luck and knowin’ where you’re goin’. For instance, there’s nothing stopping them from accidentally poiting into a 747, but what are the odds of a 747 being in the exact spot of the sky that you poit to? In the same vein, there’s really nothing stopping them from poiting onto an exploding island, but how often do islands explode?

      I would figure the “lecture” part would be Brandi territory, but given how sudden that explosion was with no real prior indication, I think people are correct with their prior guesses that this wasn’t just a Volcanic eruption, but something else.

      And Brandi would probably somehow be able to tell not only what it was, but how it happened, who planned it (if man-made), and what materials were used (if man-made).

      • Valkeiper
        March 14, 2012, 2:07 pm | #

        prior indication? what makes you think there weren’t earlier tremors?

        Just because M and Jin didn’t experience them doesn’t mean they didn’t occur.

        Not EVERY volcanic event is proceeded immediately by continuous tremors, after all. Some events can have hours and even weeks from the last feel-able (that is, detectable by human senses) tremor to the ‘main event’.

        Typically, even for Krakatoa, there are several small eruptions that leave visible damage. Rarely does a volcano just spontaneously explode. They are the one natural disaster that typically gives lots of warning for those paying attention. Thus the suspicion that something is up beyond geology.

        and if a tree falls in the forest with no one around, does it still make a sound?

        the island may have been putting off Richter scale 10 quakes for a month before they Poited in for the first time and before they arrived they hit the “calm before the storm”… then THOOM… so it doesn’t really matter if it was natural , or man-made. they only arrived JUST as it went off…

        Anything with onions in it can have that effect; sulphur is a major component in onion smell. Eggs, with their higher sulphur content, are much worse.

      • Fairportfan
        March 14, 2012, 2:12 pm | #

        Low soil sulphur content helps to create the famous Vidalia sweet onions – which is a controlled appellation, allowed only for onions of a few specific cultivars, grown only in a region surrounding Vidalia, Georgia – which can literally be eaten like an apple.

        They are the best (and often most expensive) sweet onions.

        And they tend to be Huge.

        well, I inadvertently discovered a worse smell. Back before I started trucking (and before desktop computers), I was into tabletop wargaming (still enjoy the occasional ‘friendly war’).

        One wargaming shop in my home town regularly stayed open for gaming after hours.

        one evening, 8 or 9 players were playing SFB and eating BBQ.

        the flatulence aroma was extreme; but the players were just laughing at the ‘silent-but-deadly’ emissions.

        I came in from work (in construction) and was immediately invited to join the ongoing battle between Roms and Gorns.

        I took off my boots.

        5 minutes later, everybody was outside gagging.

    And the reason you want to avoid volcanoes that are along a subduction zone is they trap large quantities of water in the magma as saturated sediments are pulled into the magma pool making a locally explosive pocket of magma.

      Examples: the volcanoes around the Pacific in the “Ring of Fire”, which all tend to explode, as opposed to, say, those of Hawaii, which have much smaller eruptions. That can go on for years, even decades. I think Kilauwea on Hawaii has been erupting continuously since 1983.

    And to answer your question Jin, it depends on where you are. On a tropical island with a huge volcanic feature, no, don’t assume that sulfur smell came from one of your friends.
    But if you’re hanging with your pals somewhere in Minneapolis and you smell that, then assuming someone dealt one is probably not too far off the mark.

    Well it would be interesting to see what is actually left of the island And vulcanos usually don’t blow up like that but that dosn’t mean they never go up ;p There have been cases if i remember right where vulcanos did erupt rather quickly (like the whole Pompey stuff it wouldn’t have happen the way it did if the people would had enough of warning to be able to run away and everybody runs if a slow steam of magma creeps towards you.

      Yes, they most indubitably can, although they have the ventriloquist-bit to a pinch (i.e. making You think it’s something from somewhere else that makes the odd sounds)

      Never mind those birds that suddenly start falling from the skies..

      I always explain to my husband that I’m capable of farting, but that I don’t believe it should happen outside of a bathroom. A) It’s rude, stinky, and gross. B) You never know when it will be more than just gas. 😛

      Well, now that you know the truth, you can respond appropriately when they tell you such falsehoods.

      No… not by breakng wind back at them. That would be rude and crude.

      Just start whistling that old 60’s song about a stormy-eyed young woman… “Everyone knows it’s Windy.”

      Or, refer to your girlfriend by her new nickname… “Gail”.

    Classy, Jin.

    @Opus: IIRC, Lava tube could be correct – the actual magma chamber could be under the seafloor. Depends on the type of volcano.

    Ah, the things you learn when you read the Earth Science book cover to cover from sheer boredom…

    This has been Earth Science with Professor Acacia Budur. Tune in next week when she takes a piece of coal and turns it to Diamond with finger and thumb.

      Abby Shuto (NCIS) is very much a lady. Agree with this or face her wrath.

    I’m curious to know what the 8 on M’s shirt looks like when she isn’t wearing it, since it seems correctly proportioned when she is. I’m also curious to know what M looks like when she isn’t wearing the shirt, but that’s a given.

    I don’t think it’d have mattered if they checked out the other island One More Time, as it looks like they probably poited back to one of their homes for a change of clothes and celebratory beers before the big boom.

    Also, I’d not be surprised if they determine Jin leaks, and that she should also never visit the west coast, Hawaii, Japan, or any other place with known and frequent vulcanism or earthquakes.

    BTW don’t click on the “Wonder Woman” ad, it isn’t a comic of any kind but a collection of goofy pictures, sort of an “I Can Has Cheezburger” without cats or captions on the pictures.

    Looks like they visited an oceanic version of Mt. St. Helens, complete with lateral blast. Or, that’s the impression I’m getting from Bud’s diagram.
