You’d Be Plain STUPID To Ignore all of the natural disasters that hv hit in the past few years

In 2004 for there was the tsunami. At least 227,898 dead. Followed by the destruction of New Orleans by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. 2006 brought terrible mudslides in the Philippines. In 2008 there were blizzards in China and Afghanistan, not to mention Cyclone Nargis in Myanmar (146,000 dead). Most recently, the 2010 Haitian Earthquake, followed by the massive Chilean Earthquake had terrible consequences. Over 231,000 fatalities and counting between them. As if that wasn’t enough, unfortunately, a byproduct of plate movements and earthquakes is… volcanic activity. As recent as March 20, 2010 the Icelandic volcano Eyjafjallajökull (pronounced AY-uh-fyat-luh-YOE-kuutl-uh) erupted, completely shutting down much of Europe’s air space. Every other time Eyjafjallajökull has erupted, her big sister, Katla, hasn’t been far behind. If Katla erupts we’d be dealing with far more than some closed air space. But that’s not the scariest part. Ever hear of Yellowstone National Park? Smack-dab in the middle of our country is one of the largest caldera volcanoes in the world. What would happen if Yellowstone’s super-volcano erupted? Global winter, loss of crops, and large scale death due to starvation. Not to mention the fact that it’s 53 mile wide mouth would spew enough magma and ash to decimate the nation we hold so dear from coast to coast. I’m not telling you all of this to scare you. But honestly…
