It's a dicegame. It just went bigtime blooie 5 years ago... will it go blooie again in the next 20, 30 years? Let's roll the dice. It's a calculated gamble. And it's sad to see what happens, but it shouldn't be entirely unexpected by anyone involved.
I say this as a person with a house about 15 miles from Mt. Rainier, primed to blow any time now. Any year.
