What If ?

If the eruption of an isolated volcano in Iceland can cause this mush havoc in Europe and America's Northeast -

Imagine the effect an eruption in Yellowstone would have on the world's environment, economies and populations.
I guess if the movie 2012 is to be believed - at least Africa comes out alright.

  1. If Yellowstone erupted no corner of the Earth would come out alright. The ash cloud would dramatically alter weather worldwide, causing famines and massive crop failure.

  2. Ha! I've been thinking about it. It would be DEVASTATING. Most people don't even know bout Yellowstone being a super-volcano.

  3. I've seen a documentary on just that possibility (I believe it was on the Discovery Channel). I guess Mother Nature has her equivalent of a nuclear stock pile, herself...you know...just in case.

  4. Yeah... but I don't think many people took the threat seriously until the volcano in Iceland showed what could really happen.

  5. Yeah it would be devastating.......but then again, I really don't give a shit about Idaho....or even Utah. Yeah, a volcano can have those two states as long as it leaves the rest of the US alone.

    Seriously, tomorrow is another day and you never know what happens. We could be wiped out quicker than Kryptonite will kill Superman.

  6. The thing is, Yellowstone could pop any time. Hopefully it won't.
