Old Yellowstone quietly getting ready to blow. But most people are worried about the "Kardashians".

---------------------

God says this about today....

Luke 21:8-12

8 And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them.

9 But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by.

10 Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:

11 And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.

12 But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name's sake.

Nothing to worry about, if that thing blows we’re all gone within weeks, but there’s nothing you can do about it.

Good thing I know how to make moonshine. Should come in handy in a barter economy.

An eruption, Kaku said, is long overdue: The last one occurred 640,000 years ago.

Bunk.

The last three Yellowstone eruptions have been spaced roughly 600000 to 700000 years apart.

If the next massive eruption is next year, it won't be early; if it doesn't happen for another 10000 years, it won't be late.

Why does this article quote a theoretical physicist? Are we out of geologists or vulcanologists?

“But, thankfully, we don’t need to freak out anytime soon. It is extremely unlikely that these swarms will set off the supervolcano. In fact, the USGS sets the probability of the supervolcano erupting in the coming year at 1 in 730,000, and has kept its volcano alert level at green.

“Swarms in Yellowstone are a common occurrence,” Jamie Farrell, a research professor at the University of Utah, which is part of the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory (YVO), told Newsweek.

“On average, Yellowstone sees around 1,500-2,000 earthquakes per year. Of those, 40 to 50 percent occur as part of earthquake swarms.”

Would certainly resolve the Obamacare problem.

theoretical physicist Michio Kaku.

Is there a bigger disaster-monger than that man?

The Yellowstone volcano is particularly dangerous because its magma is of the thick continental variety, as opposed to volcanoes located in the sea or continental edges. Being thicker, it traps the various gases, causing them to build to catastrophically violent levels. Volcanoes like those on Hawaii, on the other hand, consist of highly fluid “runny” magma. Those on continental margins, like Mt St Helens, are a combination of the two because both magma types are in the mix.

Trump’s fault. Trump and those damned SUVs.

Womyn and minorities will be hardest hit.

We live about 35 miles east of Yellowstone Lake and I can tell you that earthquakes are pretty common here.

I can also tell you that we’re blessed to have a hot spring that we use to heat our house, barns, garage, driveway, hot tub, and pool before the water gets released into the creek.

The water temperature from the spring is a steady 187F all year long. If we see it start to rise we’ll be packing up and heading west ASAP.

Until then I’m not worried about it.

So yes, this is a threat that we should take seriously.


Even if true, just what do they expect the government to do?

This is similar to a meteor hitting the earth. It is possible but there is not much that can be done before hand to prepare for it.

Yellowstone Park is simply the current location of the deep-seated, basically stationary, "hot spot". As the North American continent, via continental drift/plate tectonics, drifts over the spot a trail of volcanic calderas is left behind. You can easily spot the trail on a topographic map of the area, where it forms a diagonal path across the state of Idaho. It actually blew apart and annihilated the mountains that were there.

Below is a topographic map of Idaho showing the hot spot path, aka Snake River plain.

And Dick Cheney will emerge from this disaster. Unscathed.

I blame this all on putting wolves into Yellowstone.

They been digging.

Harry Turtledove, the alternate history novelist, wrote a “Supervolcano” series. It is quite entertaining and frightening.

When Yellowstone blows its top these government scientists will still be looking for a warning.

They and we will all be taken by surprise when it happens.

Taters.

Wyoming will become the tater center of the world.

They’ll be growing taters big as punkins.
