I don't mind
 

I'm in florida .Next to the space center .

A topsecret bunker... err, southeastern... lol

not even my ass is hanging out there too maybe next shuttle flight. Here are a few things that you should get 1 water you only last 3 days without it 2 get some good dust masks. 3 panty hose you might think I"m crazy , you pull them over your head and dust mask to protect your eyes I use to work inside bulk concrete ships here in port canaveral and it works if you get this stuff in your eyes you are done.......................

some one check live feed
 

some one check live feed for me I lost it . disreguard this feb5 1100pm live feed up and running looks ok . going to try and get some sleep. any body watched Orsan Wells War of the Worlds ?

My dad was from Blue Ridge country, born in Natural Bridge and grew up for the most part in and around Doe Hill. When I was very little we used to visit his older sister every autumn, she still lived in Staunton at the time. Always a beautiful drive down from Ohio that time of year.

I also have distinct memories of being on a boat that one of my grown cousins had, on what seemed to me like a pretty big stretch of water. I used to assume it was Chesapeake Bay but given how little I was at the time it could've been somewhere far less grand and just looked big to me, lol. I don't remember how we got there or how long it took - just the water and being on the boat and playing cards with my cousin's kids, who were my age, at a little table in what I guess was the cabin.

Funny how little snippets of experiences stick with you like that, even after "the rest of the story" is long gone.

Cool, the blue ridge moutians are a nice place. been there.:yep:

lost in the night
 

you guys alright????????????? I wish that we hear something from the media that would easy my mind that some one besides us are aware of this . good night and God Bless One last note I think we found a new job for NASA how to survive on this rock

I'm sure it's nothing to be upset about. If there were any signs, they WOULD be raising the alarm. If you read the article here:
http://volcanoes.usgs.gov/yvo/public...10/10swarm.php

You'll see that 1. They installed new and more sensitive equipment. The results are that they're now detecting more quakes that they wouldn't have detected before with the older equipment.
and 2.
Is it a 0% chance that it'll suddenly erupt out of nowhere with no warning ? No. But guaranteed, if they notice anything moving more than usual, I'm sure we'll hear about it.

all quiet on the westwern front?
 

feb 5 0830 checked live feed seems to be quiet at YMR it seems more quiet than it has been in the last 10 days :down:since I started monitoring this site may be this is a downward trend, still no word from are fearless leaders in DC. after 20 days and 1700 earthquakes,not even note worthy. Some people might be alright with a 800 pound gorilla in the room with them, but I'm not.

Steady Yubba, it's not 2012 yet ;)

Regarding the earth shattering kaboom. A quick spot of mathematical skulduggery gives me:

Frau Kaleun will hear the bang first approximately just under two hours after the detonation
Then Task Force about fifteen to twenty minutes later, and then finally yubba at two and a half hours after the explosion. This is approximate, because it all depends on air conditions, however they would definately be heard, because when Krakatoa went up with a VEI6 in 1883 (a fart compared to the VEI7 or 8 that Yellowstone would produce in full swing) the explosions were heard 3000 miles away in Australia where they were mistaken for cannon fire.

Now, a shockwave...I doubt that would actually get as far as your locales, although there might be a brief gust of wind just before the sound of the explosion reaches you, it all depends on the geography between Yellowstone and yourselves, a lot of the energy from the detonation would probably be thrown upwards into the atmosphere with the ash cloud, like the Tsar Bomba nuclear device.

Now...the shaking...that's another little calculation to undertake. Assuming the P wave is travelling at 7km/s (speed ranges between 5-8km/s depending on the composition of the ground)
Frau Kaleun, again, would be the first to receive the shake, the P wave arriving five minutes after the explosion. Then Task Force just under seven minutes after the boom and yubba about thirty to forty seconds after that.
P waves aren't that destructive, it's their friends the S-waves that do the main moving and shaking, although naturally, the intensity of said moving and shaking dissipates the further away from the main event the wave travels, likewise the P-wave, however, the S-wave moves approximately sixty percent slower than the P-wave, so Frau Kaleun would get the S-wave eight minutes after the explosion, Task Force about eleven minutes, and yubba about eighteen minutes...although my calculations on that are a bit hazy, so don't take that for granted. I can't find at the moment the energy usage of a VEI8 eruption, although the more extreme VEI8 Toba eruption which happened about 70-75,000 years ago was an estimated 1 gigaton of explosive energy, and the Taupo event of 26,500 years ago had an explosive force greater than that of every single nuclear weapon ever created exploded together. I'd be very surprised if Yellowstone went up like that, though, very surprised indeed, it's most violent event was 640,000 years ago and the ash bed from that covered an area from San Francisco in the west, to Kansas City in the east, and as far north as Canada and as far south as the Mexican border. Not quite as eventful as Taupo which covered pretty much all of New Zealand in at least 18cm of ash and buried the North Island under 200 meters of rock.

So, while its likely you'd hear and feel the explosion, well, feel THEN hear, you wouldn't get much more than that until the cloud arrived and put the sun out of commission. From that it would be a volcanic winter for at the very most about six-seven years, with global temperatures dropping by 1-2 degrees Celsius (doesn't sound much, but it is) and a fair bit of chaos in the US, and the Northern hemisphere. :yep:

Thanks I'll sleep better to night.
 

I sure picked a find time to quite drinkin.:woot:maybe I'll take up smokin, had way too much coffee today.download patches for sub command see if I can blow something up .Oh by the way, just up to recent times, didn't they just figure out leap year? Wouldn't that thing on the wall there with the numbers and you know, with the days on it could be a couple of years off, instead of it being 2010 it's really 2012.? AAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGGG ,,what's next, the ,,,damn Easter Bunny, going too impale himself on my fence?????

If there was a problem, I can guarantee that we'd hear something. There's no WAY that the news media wouldn't be crawling all over it.

I'm not going to lose any sleep over it.

yea I'm tired.
 

HAVE YOU SEEN MOOOSE ANND SQUIRRRRELLL...................................... ....................... Ok I did my duty. Some one elses turn too save the world. AAAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGG ....Women,, I ain't got time for that,,,, I got piratting to do where's me pirate suit? HHOOWWW can I go piratting without me suit...........:arrgh!: YEA BY THE TELL THAT 800 POUND GORILLA TO KEEP IT DOWN.......:yawn: YUBBA, USMC,,, OH A PARADE YOU SHOULDN"T HAVE.

Was that the one on Discovery a few years back?

Buh-bye, Wyoming! *KA-PHOOM* :o

Here's another predictive video:

So much for the Grand Teton area tourist industry. *KA-BLAMMO* Suppose the bison might have a problem with this? :hmmm:

Not to worry about the Easter Bunny, brother. He checked himself into a clinic last week, citing userland issues and something about craving a heavy makeout session with Tony the Tiger. TMZ is all over it. :DL

@ Oberon:

Your post about the P- and S-waves is quite the interesting read.
