Apparently they are having a tough time convincing people that this mountain
is dangerous.

This is not Hawaii. Explosions -- even the small ones -- on these mountains
are measured in terms of many atomic bombs detonating all at once.

Your plane would look pretty silly with a rock the size of a Volkswagen
sitting in the middle of it.

From the link:

"Peter Frenzen, normally a scientist at the Mount St. Helens Monument,
proclaimed himself "chief evacuationer (stated) "We are making a safe and
orderly exit from this location," he said, at first with calm authority.
"There is a potential impending volcanic eruption."

So there is a "potential impending volcanic eruption"? Is that kinda like a
"near miss"? I would assume that to mean there is simply a potential for
impendingness. If there were an imminent impendingness, then I think folks
would listen.

Perhaps the following scale would help folks out there understand
more-better:

1. Vague suspicion of potential eruption
2. Potential eruption
3. Potential impending eruption
4. Imminent potential impending eruption
5. Kablowee

Y'all are still at level three. No big deal.

Actually, there are levels, and we are at level 3 right now. Level three is
volcanic eruption imminent or in progress.

Note the news helicopters flying around it all morning. It's erupting right
now.

As if this moment, the news is saying they've suspended aircraft activies
out of Portland International below 13,000 feet. This is a NOTAM I've got
to record!

After reading that article and some of the peoples statements, I
think that maybe they should just open the mountain up and let
everyone that wants to get a good view just go right on up to the top.
Then when the damn thing blows, that will be just that many less
stupid people in this world we would have to deal with.

I dont know, maybe I'm just having a bad day.

Indeed. You missed that this is the ideal location for a Presidential
debate.

Everybody dig a foxhole and don't come out. Don't fly anywhere, 'cause
that's dangerous too. When a small plane crashes, that will be just that
many less stupid people in the world...
