Umm . . . a Little Followup . . .

 . . . on this post.

I really don't want to be theosophically dramatic here, but do you realise that ninety-nine -- count them once and then twice again -- percent of all things ever alive on Earth are no longer here? That in the Ordovician extermination alone, 95% of all living things that had existed at the time were completely wiped off the face of the Earth?

What, you say, surely the creatures in the ocean were all protected? You'd be wrong.

This laughable little volcano in Iceland is causing a lot of stress, but just imagine that laughable little volcano the SIZE OF FRANCE. And not erupting for a few weeks, but for 10,000 years! You're looking at a little time bomb called Yellowstone.

All life, perhaps 99%, as we know it, would be erased from the face of the Earth. Under, over and inside it.

Global warming is like termites in a termite mound causing a small sand problem compared to what could hit us at any given time. You think the tsunami of 2004 was big? You think the Haitian earthquake was big? You think World War II was big?

You really wouldn't even have time to blink, if all my calculations are correct.

Get out those metal hats and gasmasks now! Duck and cover!
