Some idea of what would happen when it blows: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sn/tvradio/programmes/supervolcano/article.shtml http://www.bbc.co.uk/sn/tvradio/programmes/supervolcano/arti...

The effects could be minimised through standard civil defense type measures. However it would require far greater cross border cooperation than is typical today.
