Alright, who filled Yellowstone to the brink with gasoline?
[QUOTE=jaykray;29229554]If we're so overdue, isn't it likely that it's not going to erupt again? It's like when you don't give in homework to a teacher, they'll ask you regularly, but after so long they'll give up. Or you'll get excluded, which in this case is a metaphor for an apocalyptic eruption.[/QUOTE]
Doesn't work like that, there's a lot of variables involved, and we know that the caldera can sort of travel around the earths crust, or that they are formed across the planet, just wherever conditions fit.
Either way Yellowstone is gonna disappear in the future, supervolcano or not, the grounds being pushed up by something big, and since the caldera is right below it, it makes sense to think that the pressure is rising.
And if I remember correctly the ground is rising at a rate higher than in recorded history, so it's getting faster, just gotta wait and see if we're around when the ground splits and goes nuclear.

Fuck yeah that's it, thankee.
Why's it called a nuclear winter when nothing nuclear has happened?
[QUOTE=jaykray;29256124]Why's it called a nuclear winter when nothing nuclear has happened?[/QUOTE]
The more accurate term would be "volcanic winter".
Nuclear winter refers to the hypothetical conditions that we would see after a nuclear war.

I assume the conditions are near identical, save radiation

Darn Blizzard and there ARG. Cataclysm came out 5 months ago. Enough already
Going to have another flood here in queensland.
The real question is how long would it take for the volcano to reach the other side of the Earth. Magma or ash. Because that is the longest time we would have to prepare. Though with all the Earthquakes going on in Japan lately, I'm almost inclined to believe a new Volcano is going to show its ugly head there instead.

Dude, this doesn't have anything to do with WoW, let alone video games in general.

Get out of here Stalker.
Apparently there was just a minor earthquake in america, hope it's not connected.
Best not get worried every time theres a minor earthquake or you'll end up living in a bunker.

Actually, if yellowstone erupted the explosion would be 10x as big.

What's wrong with that?

Because that would cause another land rush.
