Re: [californiadisasters] Pisgah Crater

As you say, Lin, the Amboy hoaxes are really lame, but still, they're far
better than this one!

I so agree with Kim. This is such a bad hoax. Anyone who has ever been out
there and has seen Pisgah crater knows that it's being "mined" for its
basalt, as it produced mostly aa lava about 8,000-10,000 years ago. It's no
longer near as well formed as Amboy, which by the way, is considered
dormant by USGS and not extinct.

Locals take advantage with that information and about every 10 years, some
jerks will take some tires out to Amboy, set them on fire, and fool folks
into thinking, as they pass along on Route 66, that there is an ongoing
eruption. Geez, even I could think of a better practical joke than that.
