apocalypsosYellowstone National Park was jostled by a host of small earthquakes for a third straight day Monday, and scientists watched closely to see whether the more than 250 tremors were a sign of something bigger to come. Swarms of small earthquakes happen frequently in Yellowstone, but it's very unusual for so many earthquakes to happen over several days, said Robert Smith, a professor of geophysics at the University of Utah.
Oh, goody, the caldera's going to blow! That's JUST what we need right now.
(Okay, so probably not. BUT. *whimper*)
