		Bill Oddie is a more serious man than you might expect, but his house is decorated like a Turkish brothel and his garden is pure lunacy: a grotto of ceramic kitsch, decoy birds and old road signs.
		Oddie, the greatest populist naturalist on television, pokes around in the pond-weed, but concludes that pond-weed is about the only living organism we are likely to encounter today.
		The genius of Oddie, who has come more and more to resemble Raymond Briggs's off-duty Father Christmas, is that he can make hope an interesting activity in itself.

		Seismology is the study of earthquakes, literally the recording of the sounds when rock cracks or breaks and in active volcanoes they may be small, but there are hundreds, sometimes thousands, of earthquakes.
		BILL McGUIRE: Seismology has been studied on volcanoes since the middle part of the 19th century and it's critical because you don't get a volcanic eruption without seismic activity, without earthquakes.
