Volcanic Eruption in Indonesia

The associated press reported today of residents of JAKARTA, Indonesia were awakened at 2:00am by the rumbling of Mount Merapi. Molten lava began to run down the mountainsides. The vulcanologists say that eruption may be immenent. They consider the volcano a stage 3 out of 4 with 1 being the highest. There were no casualties.
The story was straight forward. They did interview the chief of Merapi's Volcanology and Monitoring office. But I would have liked to have read some quotes from the local people about the situation. I think that would have added more drama. Although, I did like the interactive link to the Anatomy of a Volcano provided by nasa.
