Calabria, where my family came from is Earthquake Central. last one was in 1908. The Reggio-Messina earthquake beat the crap out of us with four Tsunamis. It could be felt in Russia. These happen every 100 years or so. So we’re due.

There is one cooking up around Yellowstone. If they go simultaneously, BIG TROUBLE.

This was predicted last week by an earthquake specialist that I monitor. See the link below.

Right, sort of. Vesuvius had a relatively small eruption but this is a different volcano although they share a common magma chamber.

We should now be studying 1816, “the year without a summer” very closely.

“BIG TROUBLE.” If just Yellowstone goes, think of dear old ELE.

Talk about the air pollution that will happen if it blows, not to mention the affect on the planet’s climate.

Single female Catholic blogger who is big on gun rights and says Francis is illegitimate, among other things.
She’s had some real interesting posts about Muslim immigration into Scandahoovian countries (graphic forensic photos of women raped/murdered by said immigrants).

It sounds like Campi Flegrei is the site of an old very large eruption, like the Valley of 10,000 Smokes left after Katmie erupted in 1911 or 12. Anyone have more information/history on CF?

And we should never underestimate the potential for volcanic disaster. In 1902 politicians insisted that Mt. Pelee was not that dangerous so that people would stay in San Pierre for an important election. It was important that they stay so a white man, not a colored, be elected to the French national assembly. Then the mountain blew killing at least 30,000 people. After several months of paying coloreds and blacks a small disaster payment for living away from home, the government cut off the payments forcing the people to move back home even though the visiting volcano experts said their was strong danger of another pyroclastic eruption. They were right and 2,000 more people died.

We have also witnessed Mount St. Helens recently, and other nearby volcanoes could cause even more fatal eruptions including major flooding as snow is heated. Anyone remember the 23,000 people killed by the eruption caused flood in South America a few decades ago? The Pacific northwest has a lot of volcano danger areas.

When the earth gets going, there can be a lot of trouble in a number of places. The series of New Madrid giant earthquakes in 1811-12 is a case in point. In that period there was a major earthquake that killed 20,000 people in Caracas, Venezuela. During the 1902 period when Mt. Pelee in Martinique killed at least 30,000 people, nearby St. Vincent also had an earthquake that killed several thousand, and in Guatemala Santa Maria killed another 5,000. I think there was other activity in Central America as well, all around the edges of the Caribbean Plate.

Thank you again for your research. I guess I can find the answer to my question somewhere among these links.
