@Mrs. Peel Buona fortuna! He was the 15th century equivalent of an astronaut. And his statues should remain.

The site remembers that you provided the password for a while (some number of accesses), and then requires it again. I assume it's being held in a local cookie with an expiration timer. I don't think that timer has changed recently. So if it's the 1A password you're referring to, no way around that when it's required. At least at this time. I was wondering myself if the timer could be extended further, since we have to logon to the site first anyway to see the forum. Site admins can correct anything I've guessed wrong.

Ah yes, the thoroughly distasteful Miss Gulch. Did you know I can sing the entire "The House Began To Pitch"? It's especially lyrical after a few beers.

Me neither. Because no one saw it coming until it was past us. Came at the earth from the sun. In astronomical terms I think it was a little too close for comfort. The huge asteroid nobody saw coming – HotAir

I can't believe this coincidence. Here's a current article explaining the origin of the Deccan Traps, and a lot more. A Massive Subterranean ‘Tree’ Is Moving Magma to Earth’s Surface | Quanta Magazine

In case you haven't heard, George W. Bush is headlining a fundraiser in Texas for Liz Cheney.

You remind me that dinosaurs ruled the earth for around 179,000,000 years, basically the length of the Mesozoic era. Humans, as we know ourselves, have been around for what? 10,000 tops? That's why I crack up when Alexandria Occasio-Chick-Fil-A tells us we have only 12 years to live because... climate change. Proving once again that being biped does not insure intelligence. Personally, I hope the dinosaurs get another shot at it. They won't make any movies about us, and they deserve a second chance. And BTW, it most likely was not just the asteroid (that laid down the global iridium layer) that killed the dinosaurs. The Deccan Traps provide a big clue to a volcanic event that probably polluted the entire planet. Perhaps the largest eruption of all time. It occurred while the Indian plate was sliding over a 'hot spot' in what is now the Indian Ocean, before the India plate collided with the Eurasian plate and built the Himalayas.

Now THAT ONE is a potential ELE! One of the top five on the planet, if not the top one.

Yep. Check out Mount Tambora in 1815 (the year without a summer) or Krakatoa in 1883. There's a 90 minute docudrama on YouTube about Krakatoa that's pretty good. Throw a couple hundred cubic kilometers of ash, lava and gas into the upper atmosphere and then chill. I've been reading and watching about volcanoes and earthquakes since I was about eight. I read "All About Volcanoes And Earthquakes" and I've been hooked ever since.

Here's the paragraph I quoted: "At 9 hours (Figure 4i), Florida faces the tsunami, now parading in a dozen cycles or more. In 50 m of water offshore Cape Canaveral, even after being weakened by geometrical spreading and frequency dispersion, tsunami from lateral collapses of the volume, dimension, and speed of that expected at La Palma could retain 20-25 m height. Shoaling waves do not continue to grow much in water shallower than their height, so 20-25 m probably reflects the terminal height of the waves expected on Florida's beaches." I'm not losing any sleep over this either, or when the next ELE will occur. For me it could be a bus on Route 80, or a terminal bacteria in an infected cut. However, the people in Java, Sumatra and Banda Aceh weren't losing sleep over Krakatoa in 1883 or the Indian Ocean quake in 2004. They just died. Whose up for a couple beers?

No definite predictions are possible without knowing the exact size, shape and placement of the initiating landslide. And even knowing that the waveforms would still be an estimate based on a model, and the incursion into the continent in specific places would vary widely because of the disparate terrain characteristics. If you look at a topographical map of your area of interest and compare the anticipated wave height to the elevation curves you can get an idea of how far in it would go at that location. Bigger wave = further inland. According to that article I posted one of the worst case scenarios would put 82 to 98 foot waves on Florida's beaches. How far inland would you have to go to find land 100 feet above sea level?

More good news. If New York City and Philadelphia are inundated and removed from the equation, New York and Pennsylvania instantly turn Red. If Miami goes too then Florida is a lock.

Too late to take out flood insurance? Here's the good news. If a tsunami does hit they'll blame it on climate change. And Trump.

If you know anything about the Canary Islands, and specifically the Cumbre Vieja volcano on La Palma, you know about the landslide threat posed by an eruption. That landslide, depending on it's size, could produce a tsunami that would wash up on the entire eastern seaboard of the United States. That volcano has had several thousand eruptions earthquakes over the last five to ten days and is now spewing lava all over the island. I saw a very detailed video analysis of this volcano and the island several years ago, and the threat posed to the U.S. is no joke. If a landslide big enough to threaten the eastern U.S. did occur, we'd have about nine hours warning before it hit, depending on what state you lived in. Do you think they'd announce it and cause a stampede? 'Could Last Weeks' - 5,000 Evacuated As Canary Islands Volcano Eruption Worsens | ZeroHedge Here's a four page paper discussing the possible threats. La_Palma_grl.pdf (ucsc.edu) My house in NJ sits at approximately 950', so I don't think we'd get lapped. Note: It's had several thousand earthquakes to go along with an unspecified number of eruptions.

This is not the original story on this photo, but a recap of the event. Did you notice the cuffed shorts? What If the FBI Threw an Insurrection and Nobody Came? - American Thinker "The pièce de resistance was this photo making the rounds on social media and the subject of endless memes, featuring a half dozen 30-something men, tall, lean, muscular, with matching watches and sunglasses hiding watchful eyes, short haircuts, pistol shaped bulges in their pockets, trying to look like MAGA protesters when their dress is more suited for a group Sunday brunch in Brooklyn or an Abercrombie & Fitch catalogue photo shoot."

For today's laugh see if you can spot a Trump supporter in this group photo taken at the September 18 'Jan 6 Protest' in D.C.
