Ok, I believe this is my first post here, and I just want to put forth something I've been thniking about. The dates I give are unresearched, and there's not a lot of science behind them. I just want to see if this is a possible scenario.
I just read the "Coming Global Superstorm" by Art Bell & Whitley Strieber. It's alright, kinda extremist. But in the book it talks of a superstorm. (no way) It said that there were many previous superstorms in the past, and that they all happened very suddenly, like something sparked them off. It also says that a (I stress the letter "a") previous storm was caused by almost-global volcanic activity. So this brings me to my first question for you great debunkers here, If a super-volcano erupted, could it cause a sort of chain reaction with other volcanic systems? i.e. If yellowstone suddenly erupts tomorrow, would it set off Mt. Baker, Mt. St. Helens, cause the San Andreas and Juan de Fuca fault lines to go nuts?
It also says that the last superstorm caused an ice age 30,000 years ago. But the reason why this ice age was short lived is because it happened in summer. I also checked (in about two books) that the last polar shift was 30,000 years ago. The book also says that during times of the superstorms, life goes through periods of rapid evolution. Now, if my memory serves me right, when a polar shift happens, the outer core almost stops. That, in turn, halts our magnetic field. Basically, we get bombarded with radiation.
Now, when the core restarts, does is cause a lot of volcanic activity? Some sort of -ogolists (forgot the proper term), have found that almost all voclanic areas where there is layers of lava, that the polarization shifts. So, could that offer viable enough proof that whenever a shift takes place, magmic activity goes up?
My last question: When did the last super-volcano erupt? I know it was Tobo or Togo, but I don't know when. My little far-fetched theory is that: Earth's polarity shifts, causing rapid evolution and global magmic activity. This activity cause's smothering pollution to our atmosphere and then kick starts the superstorms.
To my un-educated ass, polar shift fills the part in the superstorm scenario for the unknown factor.
Please don't start call me an idiot and all that, I just want to put forth an unproven idea with no scientific evidence just so you guys can figure out if it has any merit.
