Pretty much says it all.
if it's erupted 3 times in 2 million years, do you know what the odds are of it happening in our lifetimes? I don't know, but it's crazy odds. It'll probably never happen while humans exist on the planet.

Our time on the planet comparatively is a small blip. That's how self-important humans are...they think Yellowstone is going to erupt just for them.
