I'm not saying that the Yellowstone supervolcano will not explode again, I'm just saying that it may not be quite as bad as the last one was, because of the supposed movement of the magma chamber. Even an eruption 1/4th the size of the previous one would put a lot of people in a world of hurt for a long time!
But it makes life more exciting!
P.S. That photo doesn't look like the Bishop Tuff I've seen.
760,000 years ago.
wrong.
Even a minor eruption would take out our midwest bread basket, how much in the way of canned goods have you got stored up?
Hellava TUBA blast, yes? Reminds one of the UFO TUBA blast in the movie CLOSE ENCOUNTERS that shattered the glass in the tower on the set....
Great movie, some was filmed in my backyard:
Didn't know that about film sets/locations for CLOSE ENCOUNTERS. If you've ever actually been there at the devils tower you know how SMALL it is, and just an asphalt walkway around it. My father was born in Hulitt, WY; just a stone's throw away. There is another similar volcanic spire in the area but it isn't as prominent as the devil's tower.
I never saw that one, either; but when I found it, it looked so perfect...
supervolcano ping
He was very dubious, but my impression was that his doubts were not about the possibilities, but the likelihood that they had been developed and tested.
I retain an open mind.
Where did SecDef Cohen make those remarks about scalar weapons ?
DefSec Cohen was quoted in a newspaper article about scalar inferometer beam weapons back somewhere in the 90s. It's listed on the cheniere.org website somewhere, I remember seeing it. It's also used in weather control. It causes "carpenter's square"(L shaped)clouds. Sounds implausible until you actually LOOK at publically shown satellite photos, and THEY THEY ARE, big as life.
So maybe Tom Bearden isn't as crazy as some think he is. He may in fact be way ahead of the curve. I've seen, right in front of my nose, one version of the MEG/vacuum energy concept pulling EM power right out of the ZPE. It WORKS!
Yes, Toba was a big one left a crater 18 miles by 65 miles. Scientists think humans were reduced to 5 to 10 thousand individuals based on the DNA studies. Yellowstone has had 3 big ones and we are about due again. The last one was not the biggest. My father wrote a novel about the next big one which some day I may rework into a publishable form.
That sounds like it would be an interesting read! The whole idea is fascinating, and terrifying at the same time.
This constitutes a blantant anti-trust violation since you are the only two providers of supervolcano eruption insurance. Of course, for a little piece of the action, I could be convinced to look the other way. ;-)
Let's lobby our favorite government official, and make some real money, shall we?
Now you're talking. No better moneymaker than a legal monopoly. Isn't this what Ross Perot did?
