Noted that he did not say when it would erupt. It is a virtual certainty that it will erupt sometime in the next billion years or so. You can find him represented multiple times on my page: nowandfutures.com

To labour the point for you, one is a subset of the other. "Good odds" means likely to be a winner for somebody betting. "A certainty" answers the next obvious question, "Just how good do you mean?" The second didn't derive from the first. It's more like saying 1 + 1 = ?. "The answer is a pretty small number. In fact it's 2." That doesn't mean the second statement derived from the first. Both are derived from considering an actual thing. So the odds of Taupo erupting are derived from the processes of Taupo. Is english your first language? You obviously didn't study anything involving causal relations, maths, science or logic at school. Since you are one of those reason-free zones, I am now terminating dealing with you. It's like the old joke about mud wrestling pigs = don't do it because the pig likes it and you get covered in ick. Please go back to reading your star signs and chanting mystical mumbo jumbo. Mqurice
