Has anyone thought about drilling into it to relieve some of the pressure?

Maybe just bomb it. Not a scientist either. A small bomb. Not too big.

Sounds like a whole new round of scary Discovery Channel shows coming up.

I'm not a geologist, but I can imagine immense problems with that given the scope of what they're talking about. Once you take the cork out of this bottle, there's no way to put it back in and you'd better know exactly what the bottle's contents will do.
