ROFL, just kidding. But there may be one coming... like my physics teacher said, we need a bigass volcano to throw some ash into the air, not like Mt. St. Helens, but like Krakatoa. Not exactly his words, but close enough.

They say Yellowstone could go at any time.

Only one problem though--when she goes, it's gonna be a doozy. And Bopher's got a front row ticket. Me, on the other hand, I had to settle for 3rd row.

AHHHH!!! I forgot about that. I think its time for a vacation in NM. lol

If it does go... what would the effects be on NC, and also on NE, I have friends there...

Anyone see the TLC or Discovery program on the Yellowstone volcano? According to scientists and geologists, they have found rock and ashes from that volcano all over the world... One of, if not THE, biggest volcanoes in the world. They only discovered how big it was after seeing photos of the area from space...

Those giant volcanoes are actually called Super Volcanoes.

And don't worry Thumper, it would take out Montana a few minutes after Wyoming. Poor Microsoft, being in Washington State, they would be gone too. Intel (in southern California) will still be around. Apple _might_ be taken out immediately. (do I really only care about the companies? lol)

I watched a 20/20 special about the end of the world and this was listed at, like, 3rd most likely. Biological warfare and Nuclear warfare were the only things listed more likely, I think.

Hopefully, I can take over, say, Mongolia (that's above China, right?) in 20 years or so and build an underground base for us. (like on Reach in Halo) That would be the safest from the ash but it would get there in a few months but not _as_ bad. Maybe we should colonize Mars a bit faster too.

Yeah, so if Yellowstone blows, we're screwed.

I believe I saw that somewhere too... scary thought, but it could be just what we need. If it does happen, you're gonna see me using the last bit of fuel from my generator to play one last game of CnC3 or something. I love me some cranberry casserole! Ahem, I mean, video games.

its probably not as bad as it sounds, after all the human species went trough a few ice ages didn't it...
