Sounds like how Mt St Helen’s began. People doubted that would erupt, too.

As a resident when that happened I recall only one person who voiced nonsense like that and he’s still on the mountain…in places and pieces. Harry Truman.

I remember Mt. St Helen’s being in the news quite a bit before it blew up. Didn’t they expect it to blow?
