Shows exactly what mother nature can do when she gets pissed
Yes, and this one was fairly minor in terms of volcanoes. There weren't any cities on it's slopes and it was in a fairly remote location. When Krakatoa blew, it was heard 1900 miles away and it took 3 years for the air to clear. They're still excavating the remains of Vesuvius 2000 years later. I don't know how many volcano islands there are with people living literally on top of them.
If Rainier ever blows, it'll be a whole different story.
