[sigh] That program was on ABC TV in Australia yesterday - word gets around - eventually! Didn't anyone hear the geologist say that the Yellowstone supervolcano could blow anywhere between now and the next 100 000 years? The last supervolcano blast was around 70 000 years ago when only a few humans were around (probably a lot less afterwards!). Lets hope the next one comes later rather than earlier! By the way, for those who like to worry, there is a huge chunk of mountain in the Canary Islands teetering over the Atlantic, which is well past its overdue date from sliding into the sea. That would produce a massive tsunami which would wipe out most of the cities on the east coast of the USA. Apparently all it needs is just a small local earthquake to set it off. Funny that - I was on holiday in Lanzarote in the Canaries a couple of years ago and the landscape looked like the moon - with a few palm trees! Seems there are 110 volcanoes on that small island alone. A restaurant at the volcanic park actually uses the heat from a vent to cook their food on a big barbecue! It looks like a large well with a grill on top! - no bucket, though! Mind you if any of these go off, I think model railroading would be the least of our worries!
