Pressure Building Again Inside St. Helens

[Typhoid]

When it blew in 1980 (or '81) we got ash here in the Valley....and were in friggin Canada...plus my mom aid you could hear the explosion from here.

But yesterday it released steam, and since then most of the earthquakes have been dying down, because their is most likely nothing else to happen. It has no magma close to the top (apparently).

But i do/did want it to explode, i know it sounds horrible, but I mean, like, how often will a volcano in your area explode.

Let me rephrase that.

I want it to explode, but kill no people.


EDIT: Nobody lives next to the volcano.

If you think its stupid to for people to live near a relatively ( as you said, even though it hasnt erupted in 24 years) why not tell all of Hawaii they are crazy? New active volcanoes are being created there every year, Hell, Hawaii was formed from volcanoes. Hawaii is on a hotspot, meaning new volcanoes will always form around there.

So while your evacuating parts of Washington, why not evacuate the Middle East, China, Russia, and Japan?

I'd consider a volcano that erupts 4 times a century on average an active volcano. And I never said all Hawaiians aren't crazy.

The official site for Mt. St. Helens says it's an "Active volcano".

This site shows Helen's past activities.
