Great pictures, and no doubt like so many volcano's it will erupt again, but that is the wonderful power of nature 8-) 8-) 8-) 8-)

I am more concerned about the five super volcano's known to exist in the world, with the one under Yellow Stone National Park, USA, in particular now building up to full pressure again!! :P :P :P :P :P :P

When this one goes up, as it does apparently every 600,000 years, give or take a thousand or two, and we are at about 640,000 years since it last blew, then global warming will be the last of our problems!!!!!!! :o :o :o :o :o

For those who don't know a standard volcano has the power force measured crudely by scientists in terms of a small six inch cube, whereas the super volcano has a power force rated in the form of a room size cube! :o :o 

When Yellow Stone blows, which it will with the altitude of that park's floor rising every year now, it will take the whole heart out of the United States and change global weather for decades!! :o :o :o ;) ;)

Indeed Zulu that site is good, but read this one in conjunction for a better picture of the nature of super volcano's:

Chilling to say the least, there was an interesting piece about Yellowstone on the NGS channel, if memory serves, such immensity is difficult to grasp 8-) 8-)
