Edi, a 30-year-old villager, said he would stay unless he received a clear signal from the mountain's spirits that an eruption was at hand.

"People around here believe that if Merapi is going to explode there will be a sign, a magical sign," he said, sitting on a mat sipping coffee. "Either it comes in a dream, or in the form of a hallucination."


Yeah, right. I may have made some life decisions that way, but for this volcano I'd be headin' outta town as fast as my little legs would carry me. Check out the volcano slide show in clersals link. Less than 2 hours old at time of posting.
