This is definitely bad news, but let's just hope a supervolcano like Yellowstone (which is very much alive) doesn't erupt within our lifetimes...which would be many, many magnitudes more severe.
if it did erupt then there wouldn't be many more lifetimes

think extinction.. Definitely. Human civilization could be snuffed out quite quickly from any number of nature's methods, with little or nothing we could do about it. Compared to other lifeforms that survived for millions of years, humanity is a small baby. In the words of the late Arthur C. Clarke: "It has yet to be proven that intelligence has any survival value." | | | | Corey |
