Mysterious underground fire perplexes Alaska town

Residents of Eagle, Alaska, are getting worried about possibly toxic gases wafting into town from a mysterious underground fire on a nearby mountain that's been burning for almost a year. 

Nobody seems to know exactly what's burning. Experts suspect it's either a volcano forming or natural gas or oil burning in underground shale deposits. Whatever it is, the fire has been burning on a remote mountaintop, about 40 kilometres north of the community since last October at least.

When the wind is right, residents can smell noxious smoke all over town.

This is further evidence that SOTT is on the right track about 'climate change': *localized* warming, within an overall trend of global cooling, is the result of increased volcanic and subterranean activity.
