Subject: RE: BS: Waiting For The Volcano
Nah, it last blew about 640,000 years ago. Nowhere near 90% of everything perished, although it didn't do a whole bunch of things a lot of good. My friend Bob had earlier in the day filled the caldera with unpopped popcorn and when it blew all of the popcorn popped. Came down in such quantities that a whole BUNCH of critters thought it was snowing and froze to death. That, of course, triggered an Ice Age.

Bob told me later that he was sorry but he just felt like eating popcorn that day.
