This is really seems that USGS is trying to alleviate fears regarding this important issue, especially when reputable news organisations and BBC and Discovery Channel are runnig documentaries regarding the whole idea.

Still it is important to note the obvious critical consequences that can happen if such an event ever takes place, even in millennia to come.
