Just reading the headline makes me think of Centralia. :)

Probably not a good idea to allow this to be an inhabited area.
You know, in the event that some of the hot stuff that is under the ground actually comes to the surface......then.........
Surprise!

Well, maybe they can tap it for geothermal...as long as they don’t get too much oxygen in there.
I must admit, though, I am not convinced by nitrogen-blanket technology. I gave a thumbs-down to it on a recent project because it’s just so risky... ...or am I just being irrational?

This is obviously Bush’s fault.

of course...oil and global warming

California has plenty of volcanoes. Most are dormant. A live one certainly would spice things up.

Sounds like California has a case of Crotch Rot and now we know exactly where Cali’s junk is located.

Sespe creek and that whole area is famous for hot springs and mud bath clubs.

So why are they not using it for geothermal?

My first thought is geothermal; that makes me a little uncomfortable for some reason lately. Perhaps it’s just the increased awareness of seismic/volcanic activity, but it seems that we are experiencing a more active seismic period...
I pray that it will be absolutely nothing to worry about!

Back in the early 80’s i worked on several oil wells in the Santa Maria area. We were experiencing down hole temps running from 375 degree's to as high as 450.
