Of course, it will take millions of years for all of this to come about...

say what? it is my understanding that the whole island.. the whole thing not just kilauea... is less than one million years since it raised its head above sea level to begin with.

and.. as carey pointed out at least 90% of kilauea has been covered in fresh lava within the last 1000 years.

btw carey.. hvo is a part of the usgs.. not the nps.. it is in the park but not a part of the park.. and it does not have rangers.. just scientists and their support staff.
