"What's in it for you? Do you enjoy the fact that it is poisoning the neighbors and running them out of their homes? Some folk are that bad so tell us what's in it for you? Paycheck or royalty? Apparently lots of supposed Hawaiian decent folk get royalties at the expense of harming others."
Easy on the 'ad hominem' attacks. For the most part this has been a pretty good thread with lots of fact-based give and take. A big mahalo to geochem and ironyak for an informative process. They seem to disagree but are not disagreeable about it. Now the threads future is at risk with the recent additions (?) of mythology (Pandora and Pele), a red herring (magma), and what seems like a fear you have that somebody has been out to get you.
The idiom "red herring" is used to refer to something that misleads or distracts from the relevant or important issue.[1] It may be either a logical fallacy or a literary device that leads readers or characters towards a false conclusion.
Workers at Ormat, one of the world's largest geothermal producers, discovered the magma in October 2005 when they hit a chamber of the magma about a mile and a half down while drilling an injection well.The substance quickly rose about 20 feet up into the drill hole before becoming glasslike as it cooled. Ormat workers re-drilled the area several times, with the same result?
