You’re probably right about moving away. It would probably be better to be living right on top of the caldera than 50 or 100 miles away.... but then again, you can’t live on top of the caldera unless you have a really good bullwinkle costume. A møøse once bit my sister
Yellowstone is a caldera - not a volcano.
BIG difference.
Um, if it lets go, it makes precious little difference to the person burned to death or buried alive.
We should have mail-in voting only because of this!
Elkburger, anyone?
I’m glad my oldest is no longer stationed in Tacoma. Seriously, I had a slight nagging worry about Yellowstone.
But she’s at Bragg now so...number 3 or 4 on the nuke list when Russia starts launching missiles.
The point is that it is NOT a volcano.
Calderas are 1,000 times more powerful.
I live 60 miles North of YNP and I have a softball sized pitted lava rock from the last explosion of this caldera...it was unearthed 35 feet below surface level during a large commercial dig about 2 miles from my home...
If it blows in the next 30 years...well I guess I’ll stop posting to FR...
No more Cheneys
Just dont kick the bison ..........
The old Yellowstone super volcano fear porn again ... what’s up? Pandemic fear porn failing?
Hi.
“Is this something a human sacrifice can remedy,”
Yes, vegan virgins should do the trick

It could blow tomorrow. Nobody knows.
I would imagine so.
I don’t think there is any question that a full blown eruption would over time kill everyone on earth by destroying the agiculture output of the US and causing a shortage that would in time effect the world. But it’s all a domino effect. We can’t send or recieve it. Poeple get hungry and thirsty and go to the next door country to get it. War will esacalate world wide, and we all will kill each other if any of the food is in existance.
The last one to go idiology is not that importanat. People aren’t that important. People today are nothing more than the expansion of life from millions of years ago. The people have no say in what happens in this. They can’t stop ICBM’s, they can’t even seem to get together on who owns what. Well, so when this thing hits, even people have no say on anything other than how they are going to die in many instances. And the geological people say no later than 63K years possibly for this to happen. So why worry about it? If it goes the distance, that’s over 3100 generations from now. And that’s long after someone digs me up and calls me an archeologial find. Hope I was worth it.

Civilization exists as long as geology allows it.
Yeah yeah.... trot out the mega caldera story any time you wanna talk about ‘climate change’...or just scare-monger some.
Or not
Drill Baby Drill!
No could, sooner or later it will blow again.
