      @Enzzo Meh, I'm not religious at all really. I believe they are more a guideline of how you should treat others. "Most" religions have the same underlying message(Don't be a shmuck). I really think the world would be a better place if we just treated others as we would want to be treated, but maybe that is just me working in the service industry for too long. My new favorite quote, and sadly I can't remember the source is "Choosing kindness is just as easy as smiling." The world is mostly an evil place, but there is always good in it, if you look for it. I don't think we should have to look for it myself, but it is what it is.

    • @thetechnicanwithaheart1682
      @thetechnicanwithaheart1682 2 года назад +2

      I would disagree. Usually swarms of earthquakes is an indicator that a major eruption is about to occur. USGS Geological Survey pocinologists were flown from the United States into the Philippines. They were monitoring Mount Pinatubo. The prediction was that the mountain was going to have a large eruption. The scientists were nervous because past evacuations resulted in no eruption. This time they were correct. The sheer volume of Ash was enormous. It's cascaded down on top of Clark Air Force Base and collapsed many structures on the base. Eventually Clark Air Force Base shut down for good after being on the island for the last 100 years

    Yellowstone supervolcano gets a lot of attention, because its in the USA and closely monitored. Actually, The Lake Toba system in Sumatra, Indonesia is larger and erupted far more recently, 75000 years ago. If it went again it could kill millions world wide. The Lake Taupo system in New Zealand North Island is about the same size as Yellowstone, except it seems to be far more active and last erupted only 26,000 years ago (the last supervolcanic eruption on earth, which was actually slightly larger than the last Yellowstone eruption 640000 years ago). In fact Lake Taupo has supererupted several times since the last Yellowstone eruption.

It could've been that the last 3 volcanic eruptions were anomalies and just erupted quick compared to its average or anything really, we just don't know since we're basing it off of its 3 past eruptions.

    Last lava flows from the hotspot were 2000 years ago forming Craters of the Moon (Idaho). It's more likely to have lava flows in our lifetime than a violent eruption. The hotspot has been active at least 20 million years with flows reaching Canon Beach, OR and causing the Columbia Basalt Flow. The old calderas line the Oregon-California, Oregon-Nevada border and Western Idaho. Expect the next major eruption to be NE of the last caldera. Future calderas will eventually be in Southern Canada as the North American plate moves.

    Just when we are aghast at Yellowstone doing its thing, remind us about how Crater Lake was once upon a Time 12,000+ foot volcano Mount Mazama.

    Lake Toba in Sumatra is bigger, & more dangerous than Yellowstone. It last erupted approximately 77,000 years ago, & killed roughly 94% of the Earth's population.
    As Supervolcano's go, I would keep a closer watch on Toba.
    There are some Supervolcano's we haven't yet identified!!! Anyone of which could go at any time without warning. So if you absolutely, positively MUST have something to worry about.....

      And the sadder thing is, Indonesian Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics organisation isn't as good as USGS, the guys at USGS have some ideas like creating a geothermal plant on Yellowstone to drain the energy first before erupting, even though anyone can say it's bullshit because X and Y anyways, Indonesians will never thought of such crazy ideas because we're too lazy to think.
