Wow. The last time I saw this I was 4 years old and I remember it scaring the crap out of me. I was pretty much volcano-phobic throughout much of my youth (until I realized that the nearest one was like, 2000 miles away.)

and still people ignore reason, and prefer to believe and obey their authorities

Studied astrological charts...studied obscure writings by ancient philosophers...
Idiots, why didn't they just google it?

Pompeii is a partly buried Roman town-city near modern Naples in the Italian region of Campania, in the territory of the comune of Pompei. Along with Herculaneum, its sister city, Pompeii was destroyed and completely buried during a long catastrophic eruption of the volcano Mount Vesuvius spanning two days in 79 AD. The eruption buried Pompeii under 4 to 6 meters of ash and pumice, and it was lost for over 1,500 years before its accidental rediscovery in 1599.Allah says in Quran see in next post
For anyone interested in Pompeii, there's a very good BBC documentary called "Pompeii: The Last Day" on Youtube. It goes into a lot more detail about the eruption itself and the lives of certain people living in the city in 79. The special effects are as good as you'd see in any Hollywood film too.

Wonderful! I loved this show! I remember thinking of it as a living textbook...and believed everything I heard. Bigfoot? The Loch Ness Monster? The Bermuda Triangle? Sure, it's real. After all, Pompeii was real.
