LOOKING ON THE BRIGHT SIDE

A potential solution to Al Gore's tiny little global warming problem with greenhouse gasses and the lack of any warming whatsoever for the last 17 years has been sussed out; a titanic volcanic eruption on Mars Yellowstone.

2000 times larger than the explosion at Mount St. Helens. A bit of volcanic winter. With any luck we can stay ahead of the totally man-made glaciers.

One of the science-related teevee channels (Discovery? History?) did a one-hour film on a Yellowstone eruption a few years back. It was pretty scary.

it sounded pretty awful when I first heard about it years ago. now it sounds even more terrible.

Yes and it sounded terrifying. I thought, oh, never mind, I live in San Diego and the prevailing wind is westerly but then they went on to model the catastrophe and being anywhere on the west coast was going to suck the worst.

Didn't they say that the ENTIRE CONTINENT would be buried under at least 20' of ash? Or was the 20' bit for the immediate adj seven-state area?

It was something like that. IIRC it was shown with those awful predictions before they decided it could be 2000 times worse than Mt. St. Helens.
