Mount St. Helens Alert Status Increased
DarkHand writes "Mount St. Helens has become even more unstable in the last few hours. The U.S. Geological Surveys Cascades Volcano Observatory has increased the volcanic alert around the volcano to level 2 and released a press release: 'Over night, seismic activity at Mount St. Helens has accelerated significantly, which increases our level of concern that current unrest could culminate in an eruption. We are increasing the alert level to the second of three levels [...]. Earthquakes are occurring at about four per minute. The largest events are approaching Magnitude 2.5 and they are becoming more frequent. All are still at shallow levels in and below the lava dome that grew in the crater between 1980 and 1986. This suggests that the ongoing intense earthquake activity has weakened the dome, increasing the likelihood of explosions or perhaps the extrusion of lava from the dome.' The most recent readings at the SEP seismograph stationed on the lava dome itself are totally saturated. The ground is now literally constantly rumbling."
It's just Mother Nature shaking up her chocolate milk.
Hmmm.
Don't you mean within 7 weeks America will re-elect the anitchrist for president.
As x approaches total apathy I couldn't care less.
Eruptions are inevitable on live volcanoes, it's just a matter of time. So they built a nuclear power plant on one. So much for the "tight safety controls" of government oversight.

The Bible says that God is a rock
maybe the asteroids are mini-me gods that are just reminding us of that. Jesus was a human being, not a rock! This makes the mini-me gods which are part of the one true Rock God angry.
God is a rock! Worship rocks or make volcanos angry and locusts to fly from the anus of the Earth.
