Kate Bull, a volcanist, is in Tasmania writing her doctoral thesis: "Facies architecture of the Early Devonian Ural Volcanics, NSW" that will provide information about the eruption and depositional history of a 400 million year old submarine volcanic succession.
Try to grasp that time span! It makes the Peace Fire (see http://www.windgrove.com), with its 600 year committment seem tiny by comparsion.
But grasp it we must if humans are ever going to have the capability to plan a sustainable future. Rather than the next election or the upcoming flinancial year dictating our planning, the seventh generation concept is a much better time frame for decision making .
