I won't link to it but yesterday the Daily Mail website put aside its weird obsession with underage daughters of celebrities in bikinis and had a link to a video of a Russian woman leaning topless out of a car in the Dominican Republic and then getting hit by a road sign. She died instantly. It's basically a snuff movie.

Strong and Stable ones of course!
To be fair though it is their fault.
They're upping the ante then. Your move Daily Express.
That's all well and good but who's going up that volcano with the 50 metre long syringe?

Old news, this has been expected for quite a while. If it does slide in to the Atlantic I believe that New York will be devastated, we might get a wet promenade.
More worrying is the magma plume under Yosemite Park,if that blows it will trigger an extinction event.
Oh and the Express have got Yellowstone covered too......

Thing is...that one is true. There really is a super volcano under there and if it blows we are all f*cked.
Yeah it is real but they were ramping up the idea that there was a 10% chance of it happening NOW (a year and a half ago).

Haha! Fair enough. I first heard about it after watching a Sunday night documentary (something about falling waterlines in the lakes around Yellowstone was the key) and they said that it was due to blow anytime now but then they qualified this by stating that the time they refer to is measured geologically so we're talking in terms of millions of years. Consequently, I'm quite relaxed about the whole thing.

Yellowstone and The Canaries will happen at some point. This is a given. But when, and to what extreme we will be affected it unknown.
No matter how bad, not much, apart from the total destruction of the planet would be an extinction event thought. Even a 99.99% kill rate would still leave over quarter of a million lucky (or unluckly) soles to rebuild - and just think how affordable housing would be for them!
Edit: The Amex would look pretty sparse though just playing in front of 3 though - knew the corners didn't need filling in.....

I think they did ground mapping and some kind of dating test and found at least half a dozen distinct craters within each other and they seemed to blow quite regularly every few hundred thousand years.
We are apparently over due for the next one by some 20,000 years.
