RAISE YOUR HAND IF YOU LIKE LAVA.

AND THEN COMMENT TO ME.

It's not so much that I don't like lava, but rather that lava generally doesn't like me.

[mausketeer]

LAVA IS A GENERALLY UNFRIENDLY SUBSTANCE.

[strucktwelve]

As I've noted on more than one occasion.

Why the casting call?

[mausketeer]

STATISTICS to make my case.

[strucktwelve]

Ah, yes. Your case.

Humour me - what case?

[mausketeer]

Lava Insurance and why it's a Stupid Business Venture.

[strucktwelve]

Well, based on the premise that lava isn't generally of a cordial nature, wouldn't that actually be a wise Pacific Rim investment?

[mausketeer]

NO ONE WANTS TO WORK WITH LAVA.

[strucktwelve]

True enough. But it being a very literal force of nature, some people don't really have a choice. Which is where the insurance comes in, I suppose.

(Mind, it is still rather ridiculous. I just enjoy arguing the point.)

[historicmind]

Wait, wouldn't lava insurance technically be like flood or fire insurance? So wouldn't it be insurance for your possessions if lava suddenly destroyed them?

So couldn't it be a potentially good business venture? Granted, the ash and what not from a volcano usually do damage before the lava hits, but an insurance that encompasses all damages property could get from a volcano eruption could work.
