Yellowstone Super-Eruption Threat Debunked
GennyCream writes "The Internet has been all a-buzz with tin-foil-hat geeks have been in a tizzy over supposed government coverups of a soon-to-come super eruption in Yellowstone (especially see The Shadow Confederacy, but also Rense.com, or BlackVault for entertaining examples). I found an article on ATSNN.com (the Above Top Secret News Network) that cut the paranoia with the proverbial knife and went straight to the source. Their interview with USGS Yellowstone scientists covers all the angles and should inspire the mad-hatters to find something else to fear (for now)."
Haha, that gave me the first good laugh I've had all day. If I had mod points I'd bump ya up some more :)
are /. articles really getting more and more brash in their wording? What's this with tin-foil-hats and proverbial knifes and all? I've never heard of this Above Top thing before?
Anyway, let the debate begin!
This sig is empty.
Too late you posted...now I'll bestow some upon......shit.
DOH!
Considering that this one isn't about to blow, there's only one more we have to watch out for, that other Hilton sister.
Until Slashdot fixes the funny modifier, use insightful or interesting. The poster knows your intentions.

"Shooting Suspect: I Was Fighting 'Alien Clones'" riiiiiight.Any body else notice that first poster on SC joined that forum on Dec 31, 2003, has made 1650 posts in about 70 days, and yet is "breaking his self imposed exile" with his yellowstone ravings?
It must be a slow news day or something. Either that or slashdot has gone to the dogs.

We're just waiting until you guys tick off the Albertans enough that they decide they'll be better off as an independent country.
