    Amd Hawaiian islands codenames detailed..... And Vesuvius

    Amd details Hawaiian islands codenames, although the passage I find specifically interesting is this little bit

    "The driver has also listed some never been heard of codenames which include Vesuvius"

    Mt. Vesuvius is an Italian volcano that erupted on August 24* A.D. 79 blanketing the towns and 1000s of residents of Pompeii, Stabiae, and Herculaneum. Pompeii was buried 10' deep, while Herculaneum was buried under 75' of ash.

    Isn't this the site that thought the Solar System parts were the mythical HD 8000-series?

    They don't think, they just repost. Look at images with S|A watermarks, lol.

    Also love that the link under the article that is called "Source" points to the very same page it is on.

    They wouldn't name it "Vesuvius" if it wasn't prepared to bury the Earth with it's fiery wrath, boys.

    This can only mean the utter destruction of all competitors.....or that marketing departments don't think code names like "Timothy" are cool....

    Hard to say.

    The always use geographic names - cities, rivers, islands. Well, almost, if not counting stars ...
    Now - mountains.
    So, "Timothy" would be out of row.
