another lava diversion scenario.. what if the county said they would try to blow out the south side of the vent in such a way as to allow the lava to once again flow south. would we be willing to pick up the tab to buy out all those effected, even though there are so few in comparison to the more densely populated areas to the northeast of the vent the impacts could be pretty pricey. would we in mass support diversion if the price was ours to pay? and what if the whole effort failed? would we free the county from any liabilities in the future?
