From the Yowsa article:

"Here comes the rub. From our point of view, the USGS is doing a good job, but it has to check, double check and be certain to the point of absolute certainty before it issues a real warning. This is because the mentality of American public at large is simple. If you promise a disaster and fail to deliver, they’ll not thank you for sharing your concerns. Rather, they’ll hang you from the nearest tree and slash your agency’s funding just for good measure."
