Like most things in the media, the actual threat seems hyped-up, but it's still an interesting phenomenon- a possible hydrothermal explosion in Yellowstone Lake. The article in the Denver Post starts out by making you think that it could blow at any time, but if you read a little deeper you'll learn that scientists don't actually know when this bulge first appeared, since the lake bottom has only recently been thoroughly mapped.
