		<description>I am glad that non-believers are willing to do the right thing and return Madame Pele&#039;s property back to her.</description>

		<description>Hi dog...     Sorry to hear about your misfortune, presumably caused by Madame Peles&#039; curse.   I will never again remove rocks and stones from Madame Pele&#039;s land no matter how beautiful or tempting.    You just never know what may happen.    By the way, you did not mention, were those rocks on the porch burned, retrieved or returned back to the Big Island?   You never said what happened with them.   Thanks for writing.,,</description>

		<description>Hey dog, do you blame the rocks?  There is no plausible reason to blame the rocks for the fire.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t believe in ghosts or superstition.
My girlfriend went to Hawaii and brought back a bunch of rocks and shells.  A few of them were small volcanic rocks known as Pele&#039;s tears.
She spread them out on a table on the porch.
They were beautiful.
She left them there and went home.
At about 2am a terrible fire started on the porch and the house burned down.
I barely made it out alive.
My dog died.
Propane tank near my grill exploded.
The house and everything in it was completely destroyed by fire and soot.
All the items we had from Hawaii were completely incinerated in the intense fire.
I&#039;m not making this up.
I really wish I was.</description>

		<description>My husband and I took a lava rock from Maui several years ago and never knew of the superstition until our recent visit to Maui this year, July 2011.&#160; My kids took 2 more lava rocks from the park at the end of the Wailea strip of hotels past the old Maui Prince (at the end of the road there) and brought it back to our hotel during our most recent visit.&#160; When the bellman saw that we had lava rocks in our hotel, he told us immediately that it was bad luck and that we should not leave the island with them.&#160; I am superstitious and do not want to take any chances so we walked along the beach at our hotel and placed them on the sand in a good place where the moon shined over it.&#160; I&#039;m not sure if I had to return it back to its original place (we didn&#039;t as we were leaving the very next day).&#160; Nonetheless, we still had the lava rock we took several years ago at our home.&#160; Upon returning home, I asked my husband to mail the lava rock immediately back to the hotel in Maui to return.&#160; I hope this rids our family of any bad luck.&#160; We have had a stream of bad luck for the past several years, deaths among close friends of ours, divorces amongst close friends of ours, demotion in a position, and marital strife.&#160;
We give homage to you Madam Pele. Please forgive us for disrespecting and taking what is rightfully yours.&#160; Please release any bad luck to our family, we kindly ask of you!</description>
