Earthquake in Afghanistan (1am local)
« on: January 03, 2009, 02:42:36 PM »
Just had a fairly decent size earthquake here. Shook all my junk and woke everyone who wasnt awake up. This country just keeps adding to the list of not making it a tourist destination.

... Wow. I just found this.

There's an "earthquake storm" going on in Yellowstone Park. Since the 27th of December there's been over 500 earthquakes.

And a map of earthquakes over the last week...

     You realize Yellow Stone Park is considered a potential super volcano? About every 600,000 years a huge eruption occurs there. Enough lava and ash is erupted to cover the entire U.S up to a meter. It has been approximately 600,000 years since the last one. Enjoy that thought next time you hear about an earthquake near Yellow Stone. A long shot in any one lifetime but its very real.

When it does 'explode' (erupt) Canada will be closed for business the UAW will be blinded and it will probably be perpetual winter for about three years. The sea level will not rise one inch even with carbon dioxide levels at a record high in human history.

No clue what will happen to Afghanistan.

Something must be  true in Mayan calendar for 2012, the earth axis are displaced every 10k years, and the Solar System may get close to that point in Galaxy again.

Isaiah 24.1 -------- "Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof" (Isaiah 24:1).

You'll be your own military once you start to have to shoot looters.
