2006 Mud volcano didn't stop drilling

A drilling operation in Indonesia during 2006 caused water to infiltrate and carry mud to the surface in a continuing eruption that still spews 100,000 cubic meters of mud per day.
Whole villages have been buried and hundreds of people displaced.
Levees have been emplaced to keep the flow contained, but flooding still occurs.
Methane from the site also makes for increased danger.
Arguments continue over the actual cause with some claiming that an earthquake caused or exacerbated the situation.
Why wasn't this used as an excuse to stop drilling in the US?
Well it was on land and the eruption is mud, not oil (can't sell mud, can you?).

Billions wasted on earthquake research!

To think that we have wasted billions of dollars and countless hours of research time trying to determine the cause of earthquakes and an Iranian Cleric has had the answer for who knows how long.

IT IS WOMEN!
That's right! Women wearing revealing clothing and behaving promiscuously are the cause!

Hey, it sure explains California's quake issues...I'm just saying.
Now, if they can just figure out what clothing lines and combinations lead to the worst quakes we can control the timing and severity.
