I guess y’all didn’t think there was enough fear and panic going around, not enough false information in the media…that we needed more. Cute. I don’t care what day of the year it is, when a national crisis is going on and a lot of people are already afraid, it’s pretty crappy to stoke that fire.
Well interestingly, the date you posted this comment reflected that time frame, BUT the date listed at the top of the article is 01Apr2023.
Checking for publish dates doesn’t really hold much relevance or value to much of anything, pointless for the 99% part.
Maybe stop reposting/republishing old outdated articles. That’s just dumb and unprofessional to begin with. Are they too lazy to go find and publish fresh NEW content?? Does the author/publisher actually believe that that article was some kind of journalism “masterpiece” worthy of multi-year republishing?? It was a complete fakery, fabricated “news” story to begin with.
Dont make lame excuses for unprofessional, unethical, and middle school-level, “journalism” skills, and irrelevant details that the reader might have missed, and quite frankly – the reader should not have to ascertain original publish dates.
I basically said the same thing.This is the most tasteless thing I have ever seen. I took it off my FB page. I will not be a part of something so senseless and idiotic!
People, PAY ATTENTION TO THE DATE THIS WAS ORIGINALLY POSTED BEFORE COMPLAINING ABOUT IT BEING IN POOR TASTE BECAUSE OF CURRENT EVENTS.
This was posted on April 1 of 2019!! NOT THIS YEAR. But even if it was a current post it CLEARLY states that it is an April Fools Day joke, BUT you actually have to READ the post BEFORE rushing out and buying everything you can get into your vehicle.
This is intended to add a little levity to life, NOT to terrify people and personally my wife and I got a chuckle out of it. It is kinda nice that there are still people who can have a sense of humor in the current situation. And it should teach you to read the ENTIRE ARTICLE before you get out the guns and try to run to a safer area. (Even though there are a few who are calling this fake news that we wouldn’t mind if they did pack up and leave)😆😉
Common sense should tell you that something like this would hit the national news LONG before Facebook has the chance to put it up.
Hopefully there are others who enjoyed a little humor to break up the doom and gloom.
These people complaining don’t realize,they are the ones causing all the panic..They are so into the negative, they don’t see nothing else. Come on people,, take off the blinders. Investigate, before u instigate.
I hope the series of fake news articles in here today are just belated April Fool’s “pranks”. Because honestly the level of fakery is so inferior-grade, like, it was almost insulting.
What was quite comical (and disturbing too) was that many other readers bought right into the stories, and believed them, initially anyways.
SPOILER ALERT: If a major volcanic eruption were imminent – there would not be such far-in-advance warnings of it (months away, in this case), any advance warning would be basically “last minute”, so as to not create panic and chaos needlessly.
Like, even if, say, Yellowstone or Long Valley Caldera for example were getting ready to erupt – authorities would already know well in advance, BUT that info would be kept from the public for as long as possible, ideally for them til the last minute.
And WHEN has ANY government agency of ANY kind EVER been honest and forthright with the public??? The United States Geological Survey (USGS) is no exception. I mean, they’ll publicize info about volcanic and seismic activity, BUT they ALWAYS down-play the nature and level of potential threat of the geologic “unrest” at play. I dont even bother reading or listening to anything the government says, because its so scripted and completely predictable. Down-play and deny. Down play and deny. Down play and deny. And its that way with EVERYTHING with the government, that tactic is straight out of their “playbook” “Nothing to see here, nothing to see here”
Basically the USGS released no such info, so where would any “news” outlet get such info then?? Yep….the said “news” outlet FABRICATED the story. I took ONE LOOK at the title of this article and instantly KNEW it was some form of “fiction” and bull$#it….lol
not funny
It means Nature and geology is inferior to california.

Good lord!! A joke is a welcomed reprieve from the ultra serious last year!! Personally, I appreciate the good laugh Active NorCal! Thank you!!
It’s nice to know some people still have a sense of humor. Thank u, I hope you have a wonderful day..
This is not even close to being funny. People are already fearful in this day and age. Shame on you! Tasteless at best.
