I welcomed you on the EQ thread, but I will do it here too! It is an honor to have you here at ATS and I look forward to your knowledge and input.
Your prediction is definately cause for concern and I imagine would be quite catastrophic. Could you maybe explain the potential damage and also what method you refer to for stopping the lava flow??
Thanks in advance...

In reference to Iceland...I haven't been following this very close lately. Are there really true indicators to something happening soon now?

These events will lead up to an eruption and lava filling up this crater by November 2010 and moving East ward to Hilo the capital city on the Big Island of Hawaii. The lava will make its way to Hilo Bay around December 25, 2010 if not stopped. There is only one way to stop this flow.

The Yogyakarta Volcanic Investigation and Development Center (BPPTK) Subandrio said Thursday that Mount Merapi had shown a different kind of eruption characteristic as compared to previous types.
Subandrio explained that Mt. Merapi used to be a non-explosive volcano, which led to a slow eruption that expelled lava as what happened in 2006. However, on Tuesday afternoon, the volcano characteristic turned into an explosive which prompted a direct blast of hot ashes, he said.
The vertical direct blast reached 1.5 kilometers in to the sky, which was the first time that had occurred with Merapi, he added.
