Hi Everyone!!!
In 1666, Mount Vesuvius - a volcano in Italy - erupted without warning. When people saw crosses falling from the sky, They thought that God was telling them they were safe. But those 'crosses weren`t really signs from God. They were twinned crystals of pyroxene that were blasted out of the ground and then fell back to earth.(M Stewart: Crystals, Heinemann 2002, p9)
Cheers
