My goodness! I'll be glad to send the drama over to your side of the country. A little office drama is not enough for you is it? You'll do anything for attention...now really! lol
There was a program on Discovery about a guy who had done some work to predict eruptions by looking at the nature of these little quakes. His method relies on looking for long rather than short events, when they are long it's due to stuff seeping through the ground, each time it makes an advance there's an initial rush which tapers off. Normal quakes are a bang and then they stop. He looked at one volcano which he said was about to erupt and the conventional science said was not. Turns out he was spot on. That article appears to use all the old methods, but if it mentioned his method I didn't see it. Anyway, Mt St Helen's is just about a days drive from here, maybe I should go to the visitor center this weekend, before it gets blown to little pieces?
