As terrible as the destruction could potentially be this kind of thing is awe inspiring in it's power. To just imagine that there's something out there in nature so intensely powerful as to move the ground under our feet and spew out molten rock. We could never duplicate that power competely.
I heard somewhere - I'm too lazy to look it up now - that the ash from Helen's last blow settled all the way over to touch Minnesota even. Imagine that kind of power - to throw the ash to high as to be blown 3/4's of the way across the U.S. That's power.
