    Ooooh! Do we have a "Caldera" that is feeling sassy! I hope it blows up smoothly... otherwise we may have an ice age in our hands, and I have a bunch of boats that like the water just the way it is.

      Interesting. Seems its almost always experiencing some kind of movement.

          The sky is falling! Grab your umbrellas!

          Oh wait, that's just the smelly stuff that hit the fan.

              seems to be quite for now...but I read this today
              The Yellowstone caldera floor has risen recently - almost 3in per year for the past three years - a rate more than three times greater than ever observed since such measurements began in 1923.

              From mid-summer 2004 through to mid-summer 2008, the land surface within the caldera moved upwards as much as 8in at the White Lake GPS station. The last major earthquake swarm was in 1985 and lasted three months.

                    Oh dear! First it was "Global Warming" that I had to worry about. Now that the planet is in a cooling cycle, I need to worry about "Climate Change". Based on this discussion, our newest global crisis is "Terrain Change". Do I need to stop driving my car because it is causing too many earth-shattering vibrations? Are we over-modulating the planet to the point it will spin out of it's orbit and go hurtling towards the sun? Do I need to buy "Vibration Credits" from a front company created by Algore?



                    Will I pay more in taxes to help solve this new crisis?

                      If we would just stop eating cows, we could solve several problems:

                      1) they wouldn't be creating the methane that is heating (I mean cooling) the planet,
                      2) we wouldn't need vibration-creating trucks to haul them to market,
                      3) their methane emissions would no longer cause seismic vibrations that rural areas are known for,
                      4) city slickers wouldn't need to run the air in the Suburbans when passing through those smelly rural areas (therefore using carbon in the process),
                      5) steakhouses wouldn't be putting out their cancer-causing smells on Friday and Saturday nights,
                      6) many on the Indian subcontinent would be happy to know their gods are not being devoured by Western infidels, and they would love us more.

                      Of course, with so much less carbon entering the atmosphere, the trees would die off due to lack of food, especially in the Amazon basin, and that would create evn more climate imbalance and cause the ozone layer to expand, creating another opportunity for DuPont to solve with yet another newly-patented product.

                        I hear there is a study going on about EMF from all the BL motors in R/C.

                        More taxes are needed for a study of them an China LiPoly

                          Fun stuff. Hope I don't live to see it.

                          Almost makes me wish I was a volcanologist instead of a sedimentologist.
