Well, since I'm about 1000 miles west of Ystone, on the coast, I'd hope that if anything happened the prevailing winds would carry much of the crap east. But I've seen projected ash distribution patterns, and my little slice of the California coast is just _barely_ outside the danger zone by the current best guess. Which probably means we'd be in for it along with everyone else east of us.
Like everybody else says, of course, there's nothing to be done about it, except maybe not to move to Idaho. And since we've been aware of this caldera only since the '60s, for all we know this current peak of activity may be part of a cycle that recurs every few hundred or thousand years, without particular problems. Time will tell.
