A few years ago I was speaking with a person who was in Rabaul in 1994 when two Volcanos there went up at the same time (taking out the Airport too). He spoke of being camped out (they simply evacuated to a safe distance when the word got out that it was about to go up) with a few thousand others about 15Km away for a few days. It wasnt funny at the time, but when we spoke a decade later, he described it as a "New Years Eve fireworks display combined with a Thunderstorm that went on all night".
