We were told to evacuate last night. I've lived here 43 years and have never been told to evacuate. The quakes have been pretty strong, but I grew up here and I plan to die here. Send some prayers our way.

If the Super volcano in fact erupts, it will happen soon .The earth has changed its rotation.The magnatic poles are shifting ,the gravitational pull will cause up lift in the earths plates.Mountians can form in months rather then millions of years, when pressure is released things happen.earth has regenerated many times before. The earths plates are on the move since the Burma plate broke ,Remember when pressure is released ,that means that other areas WILL follow.when you have a action there will always be a reaction.Sadly when it happens it will be a rapid event .History repeats itself.The earth is in the process of regeneration, man can't stop the events to come .It will happen in the twinkle of a eye.The Watcher.May God Be With Us All. All I Say IS SOON.I did predict the Indian Ocean Quake To My Friends Almost To The Day! Remember Watch out for the movement of the Canary Islands A land slide may happen at the same time!As the ocean floor has released the plates with such intensty Million of years of pressure have BEEN released In 2004! Stay Focused BE PREPARED AS IT MAY COME LIKE A THIEF IN THE NIGHT.JOHN 3:16 AMEN.

"Supervolcano

Dr.Jake Lowenstern are the ugus scientist people doing more data on the supervolcanoto see that their is nothing going on for now,so that means it is all up to mother nature to tell us that it had enough time to sleep,also can you tell me when willit erupt so I can take the action by warning my family that Yellowstne is erupting and do I have to is stay inside while the ash cluods are covering Arizona and the rest of the states so how long will Yellowstone erupts? how long will will it be before we see sunlight? Will we be in a long winter for years to come also. Tonya C. Harris"

Okay, well, it isn't really up to mother nature. Yellowstone's supervolcano erupts every 6000ish years, and it always has. The discovery channel says that it's nearing that time now, and so of course people are attaching it to the end of the world in 2012. (which, by the way, won't happen. It didn't happen on 6-6-06 (which happened to be my birthday) and it wont happen now.) so yeah it wont be mother nature who makes it blow. also, it might have vented itself so much that it doesnt blow. it spews steam daily.

I have watched everything I could that the scientists have put out and the older scientists are giving warnings that things are happening and they better take notice but this young kid who acts like he knows it all who has not been studying this area as long has they have will not listen and acts like they should be put out to pasture. I say we need to put the ones who knows this area better than "Dr Jake" and let them do the work they have been doing with out this Govt Flunky who only tells you that nothing is wrong. We are on a need to know basis the whole worls is on a need to know Basis I know things are changing in Yellowstone I live in Wyoming I would love to have "Dr Jake try and convince me that things are fine personally I know he is smart but when it comes to this he needs to go back to school and learn from the ones who knows Yellowstone and all the scientific changes they have seen and documented over the years maybe he will learn something usefull. I know he is not telling everything also when you go there more and more things are blocked off the lake is shifting and killing trees and animals are dying more and the bulging that is going on come on "Dr Jake lie to someone else. You may have convinced others of your knowledge but we who live here in Wyoming think you are a liar and know different. Something is going on and we need someone to get in there and tell us the truth so we can be prepared the whole world is at stake here the Human Race is at stake here Wake UP Dr Jake even your life is at stake Someone needs to get the facts and tell the truth how many times must that be stated I have said it quite a few times in this comment. I live in Wyoming was born in Wyoming and I care about the world and I want the truth and that is not cooming from you the person who talked to "Dr Jake" talk to the ones who will tell you the truth go to them the ones who have studied Yellowstone for more than 10 years they have the knowledge they KNOW.

You might find as I do that he is a liar he is hiding something. I have no PHD I am just a concerned citizen of the USA and I want the TRUTH.
