................................... Then there's the issue of the hungry mobs that would be roaming around searching for supplies and the fact that the govt might declare marshal law and 'confiscate' your supplies and guns for the greater good of public order. View Quote Well, uh, is that like the only LEOs being marshals, the Marshall Plan, or like, uh, you know, martial law? |

Well, it isn't every day in GD that you read about crustal stretching.

All of the problems in Yellowstone were created by Bush and global warming. Time to start charging people a volcano tax so the Democrats can study the problem and offer a silly solution.

Quoted:
The size of volume of the chamber is 11,500 cubic MILES. If I remember math right, that means that each side of the cube containing that material would be around 3800 miles. Thinking of a magma chamber that is roughly the size of most of this country is pretty staggering. If nature decides to blow up that one, there wouldn't be a damned thing anyone could do about it, and I imagine it would end most life on earth. View Quote You don't remember math right. The cube root of 11,500 is 22 and a half. It's still big and it will kill us but don't go all panicky about it. |

Krakatoa lowered global temps by about 3F for about 5 years. This would be an order of magnitude far greater than that eruption. Toba supposedly dropped temps by an estimated 21F. Then there's acid rain over much of the world that'll kill off most plant and animal life. I'm sure there'd be pockets of survivors but the large majority 95%+ would be dead in under a year. Kinda hard to prep for that View Quote That is why you keep large stores of booze at the BOL. I tell the wife its for barter but...... |

Quoted: Why don't they just drill to the chamber and lance it? (Only half-joking) View Quote Oooooooo, wait!!! We could plot the position of the Soviet satellite that's carrying nukes (THERE'S ONE UP THERE, DAMMIT!) and directionally drill so that a jet of hot MAG-MA shoots up and vaporizes it.

Lex, take a look at the prior history 2,000,000 - 1,200,000 = 800,000 years
1,200,000 - 640,000 = 560,000 years 640,000 - 0 = 640,000 years it cant be an extinction level event every 600,000 years and animals still exist that trace their ancestry back to the age of dinosaurs.... it would only be a suck level event. |
