Typical sailor.

In a lady in every port.

Or something like that...

Attaboy. Six dead, thirty badly burned, eight still missing, but let's focus on the size of the eruption.  That makes sense.

Right, volcanology should stop existing when your unchallengeably and exclusively correct  sensibility has deemed focus should be elsewhere.

Yeah, that was my point.  No more volcanology.

Tell me - when people are killed in car crashes, do you go right to gear ratios and valve clearances?

If I have a strong interest in gear box design and I have reason to believe the gear box had a lot to do with either the crash or the casualties, I very likely would.
