All I want to know is the truth as well popcorn. But the truth requires *facts*. If someone drilled into a volcano, that volcano is on *some* survey of active volcanoes on the planet. That means that the volcano has a name (or at least a designation) and a precise geographical coordinate so what is the name of the volcano and where is it located?
I'm not saying that these aren't distinct possibilities but is there any *evidence* for it? There is a distinct possibility that a rock the size of Manhattan could crash into the Earth in the next month. There is absolutely a non-zero probability of this happening but that doesn't mean that we have any reason to believe that this will happen in the next 30 days because there is no evidence for it.
If there is a real danger of a gigantic methane bubble exploding and creating a huge tsunami, why is it that the only places that know about it are these breathless blogs but not a *single* scientific web site or science-based blog? Not one?
Btw. I'm NOT the Flying Spaghetti Monster (Peace and Sauce be Upon Her, Ramen). I am a member of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster--well not really, the FSM is a parody invented by a UC Davis student to point out the utter absurdity of teaching intelligent design (creationism dressed up for court) in biology classrooms.
