ke$ha could tell 'em what's gonna happen next.

there's a volcano in bolivia which's expanding at the rate of about 1.5cm per year. as volcanoes go, that's volcanic growth. this particular rapidly-expanding volcano has been dormant for 300,000 years. you know, give or take. scientists noticed the growth, which reaches out in a 43 mile circle, five years ago, using satellite pics. the scientists only have 20 years of satellite data, so they're using geologic, GPS, and gravity data to determine what's the happs. the fiery hill has been dormant 300,000 years and the scientists have determined that the volcanoes in this area blow once every... 300,000 years. they say that this one is not in imminent danger of blowing. now, i am not a scientist, but my personal advice to the bolivians is to get the hell out of there. but, again, not a scientist.
