VolcanoCam Back On The Air
Cyberherbalist writes "Over a year after the camera went on the fritz, the Mount Saint Helens VolcanoCam is finally back on the air. It's just in time to catch the famous firework as its earthquake level rises dramatically. All MSH climbing permits have been cancelled due to the danger of rocks and such flying from the lava dome inside the crater. If the weather holds, you may get some good views if the volcano continues ramping up its activity."
There's an eruption possible in the near future, but it won't be as big as the last, according to news I've read.
Anyone living up in that area see anything with the naked eye that they want to report? I think if I lived up there, I'd leave town for a while for someplace safe and quiet. I hear Florida is nice this time of year.

You might or might not remember that in 1980 it blew up and killed 67 people, destroyed a couple hundred square miles of forest, and in general caused quite a fuss. It was one of the most destructive volcanic events ever recorded in recent history, so naturally everybody's forgotten about it in favor of tripe like jpegs that capture your computer or some such rot.

Hell's teeth, man! Why does someone always have to come up with a crackpot conspiracy theory.
If it's not the CIA or illuminati it's some sort of mythical "darkness". When will people learn that occams razor indicates the camera has probably been stolen by aliens. or crackheads.
