Of course, there is also this tiny hiccup on a Volcano they have been predicting
will erupt soon, for over one year:

USGS Update 2004-Nov-04 09:15

Potential ash hazards: Wind forecasts from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA), coupled with eruption models, show that any ash clouds
that rise above the crater rim today would drift east-northeastward to eastward.

Recent observations: We have experienced the first impairment or loss of field
instruments during this first major snowfall of the winter season. Deep snow and
icing typically take a toll on solar panels, transmitting antennas, and other
components. Seismic station NED on the old lava dome stopped transmitting this
morning. It appears that the GPS spider that is riding on the west glacier may
now be buried and its radio signals blocked. Most seismic and GPS stations on
the old and new lava domes lie in areas of warm ground that will hopefully not
accumulate deep snow. We maintain a cache of spare parts and, if sites are
damaged, we are prepared to make needed repairs as soon as weather conditions
allow.

And I did happen to notice that a Mag 3+ hit Mt St Helens this morning, but hey,
no worries, it's *only* a stratovolcano.

contrary to verifiable facts, is a society that chooses and
deserves the Police State Dictatorship it's going to get."
