He ranks tsunami risk as second only to global warming in the hazards facing the planet.

Ok.

Highest elevation in Florida: 345 feet, and that is on the panhandle, on the side opposite the Atlantic. Got water wings?

Other experts say such predictions about La Palma or the Hawiian volcano of Kilauea are grossly exaggerated.

I read right here on FR that this isn't going to happen.

What about pandemics, asteroids, and supervolcanos??

There's always somehthing. Maybe in the year 2100 the big angst will be about when the robots will rise up and enslave us all..

I saw this on the Discovery Channel. Very interesting. They said it would destroy the entire east coast for up to 12 miles inland. I'm looking for property 12.5 miles inland.

Why not just drill a few holes in the sucker and let the lava and gases out to prevent the big build-up?

Evacuate the east coast of the US in 12 hours? Sorry folks you are going to die sitting in your cars in gridlock.

Some Moslem scholar predicts it will happen in 2007. He says the Koran says so. I saw a thread about it here on FR earlier this afternoon.
Sorry I would provide a link, but I am not sure how to do so. I am NOT a computer geek; I'm barely computer literate. :)

This isn't scare mongering. It has been well researched for over 15 years.
