Security, IT and anything else that matters... to me, that is

I'm sitting in California at a geek conference (til tomorrow), and so I am missing the up-close excitement of what's happening at St. Helen's. The USGS raised the volcano cautionary level to III (press conference video link - WMV) today and evacuated the immediate area. Geologist say all indications are that magma is moving underground in the crater.

There's a good slideshow on KATU TV's web site from Friday's eruption. The KATU web site has a lot of great information and video, and you don't have to sign up and start getting spammed to access it, unlike on some other PDX news station sites. Score one for KATU - that's customer oriented content publishing. Thanks to KATU's decision-makers for that.

Apparently Ms. St. Helen has saved some magma for when you return. Besides, I couldn't see anything for all the darned trees around here in LO. It did get dark pretty early Friday, but not dark like Spokane in May, 1980. More like dark because Winter's coming. Darn.
