The track of the Yellowstone Hot Spot is across the Pacific NW, NOT southern California. Makes no difference. These earthquakes are caused by global climate change warming and cooling and are Trump’s fault.

Anyone else get hairs that stand up on the back of your neck when you hear someone from the government say “No need to worry, trust me.”

Newsweek is now doing articles based on alleged Google searches?
To: Red Badger
Why worry about something that you have no control over? We do not posses the technology to start or even stop a caldera volcano event.
Kind of like our sun going supernova or red giant. Nothing I can do about it and if it happens in my life time ... I am dead. Worrying about it will only shorten my lifespan.
Ultimately it is called “risk acceptance”. There are only three possibilities with risk. You can take actions to mitigate a risk (wearing a helmet while ridding a bike), you can transfer risk (medical insurance should you fall of the bicycle) and anything not mitigated or transferred is automatically accepted (bicycle getting a flat tire)

Global warming is a total Hoax!
It’s a made up problem to provide a revenue stream to ignorant people!

Correct. We are all dead in the long run. Why worry about dying unless you aren’t Saved?

This is what passes for "journalism" these days, proving that there is a step below "Everybody else says so!".

If it wasn’t for global warming, Chicago would still be under a mile of ice.

In an article on the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory website, scientist-in-charge Mike Poland has explained what impact earthquakes have on volcanic activity—and why the quakes in California will not cause Yellowstone to erupt. If Yellowstone erupts, the worst that Scientist Poland faces is losing his job. If he puts out a statement which causes panic and results in real estate prices around Yellowstone collapsing, and other economic dislocations, he faces the CERTAINTY of losing his job.
This is why, while he may be right, we cannot trust his opinions.

We do not posses the technology to start or even stop a caldera volcano event. I'm not so sure. A terrorist event or attack from another country capable of delivering a nuclear warhead into the caldera would not set it off. Just speculating...

To: Red Badger
Remember that this is a guy who thinks that micro-quakes at shallow depths are indications of pressures being transferred as great depth. And that drill holes perforate tectonic plates.
He seems to be of the opinion that shallow quakes caused (allegedly) by fracking are the equivalent of deep quakes indicative of tectonic pale movement.
Is he right? I don’t know. Gotta say I doubt it, though.
