#1 I worked with a guy from Cameroon (a bright, well educated guy, BYW) who passed along a rumor that the last eruption of the lake was caused by Israel testing WMD. He didn't come right out and say he believed it, but he swore he saw Israeli military vehicles in the area after the fact, and he wouldn't believe any innocent explanation for their presence, of course.

As with all good conspiracy theories, innocent explanations never are innocent. I googled the rumor and only got a couple of hits (one claiming a neutron bomb) from some whack-job neo-nazi-type sites. I haven't googled it since (3 years) to check on any spread.

It just goes to show you: it's always the Jooooos, isn't it?

#4 Well, I googled it again and only got one hit on the rumor so far - probably the same neo-nazi site. Plus, as an added bonus, I caught a trojan when I followed the link. That's why I always practice safe surfing. Hmmm, I feel the need for a shower...

#7 IIRC, after the last disastrous gas eruption, there was a project started to pipe the gas up from the deep water as it is produced. It was killed by local politics/sensibilities. Anybody know more?
This has been happening regularly for as long as records exist. Centuries at least. A very soluble problem.
