xcaptain	Posted - 2007.12.12 14:37:00 - [1] Ive just heard that Island is lying on the edge of a tectonic plate and that there is a lot of vulcanic activity. does this mean tht EvE no, not just EVE, the servers, no not just the servers, the whole CCP company, might be in danger? what if an huge earthquacke destroy CCP. how would we ever survive without EVE?? P.s. im sorry for wrong pronnouncement and spelling. Fly Safe xcaptain

London rarely has earthquakes. That's true but it has happened in the past. There was a documentary on TV a year or so ago that pointed out that most of Northern Europe (the industrial power house and also where some of our greatest architecture is located) is on top of a really deep seismic fault. Current thinking is that it's stable but recent research was beginning to challenge that. London has in the past suffered some severe quakes:This is why history lessons can matter -- (Battle hardened industrialist) [Brackley, UK] My budgie can say "ploppy bottom". You have been warned.

flashfreaking LFC FreeFall Securities	Posted - 2007.12.12 16:11:00 - [22] Yeah, Iceland (not Island ) is situated on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and yes, Iceland is breaking in 2 and there is an ocean forming in between. But you are forgetting you will be a) dead or b) frozen c) drowned => all goes back to a) dead. For this to have a serious effect on Iceland, we'll have to wait about 1000 years, at least. And please, refrain from watching silly doomsday docu's. Thank you Disallowed sig graphic. Send an e-mail to [email protected] when it meets the forum signature guidelines. ~Saint

CCP Chronotis	Posted - 2007.12.12 16:15:00 - [23] Iceland does indeed lie in an earthquake zone being atop the mid-atlantic ridge.. Most of the buildings in iceland are reinforced against earthquakes though, and since I have been here have not felt any tremors to date in Reykjavik. However we are reasonably safe from big earthquakes as the boundary is a divergent one and not a convergent or transform plate boundry like in Japan or California which can cause much more intense earthquakes. In short, we are safe here :)


CCP Atropos	Posted - 2007.12.12 16:15:00 - [24] I went snorkeling at Thingvellir with a few other CCPers and you basically snorkel between the two tectonic plates. It was pretty awesome. However, even though Iceland has both volcanoes and the potential for earthquakes, I think the chances of CCP being pulled into a rift is pretty minimal.

risingmoon parchseason	Posted - 2007.12.12 16:27:00 - [31] the polar ice cap floats so has already displaced it's mass and tehrefore when it melts will hardly effect sea levels. ice on land is a different matter, such as greenland, northern russia and oh i dunno, large chunks of antartica.

Valadeya uthanaras Killjoy.	Posted - 2007.12.12 16:40:00 - [33] London, not really the safest place to put server, in my opinion. some to northern cadada (canadian sheild) Earthquake...only seen 1-2 in 20 years and the biggest was a 4 on reichter squale. and you would be safe from the virgin mobile and other greedy compagnies on the network. Oh and cost for cooling the equipment can be minimized used some ventilation, temperate being rather low all the time ^^
Dravius Luxor	Posted - 2007.12.12 16:41:00 - [34] Originally by: Sister Impotentata Here's an experiment: Take a large glass. Fill it with ice cubes. Fill it the rest of the way with water. All the way to the top, so you have a nice convex meniscus. Allow the ice cubes to melt. This is a remarkably good point. I'm no scientist, but as far as I know, water is one of the few compounds that takes up less space in it's liquid state than when it is solid. Britain is threatened by the dissolution of the gulf stream, but is there any reason to think that water levels will rise much? Or will they in fact sink? Or will it just get cold?

Dravius Luxor	Posted - 2007.12.12 17:00:00 - [39] Hmmm... I'm beginning to wonder now. If the sea ice melts, sea level will drop. If the land ice melts, sea level will rise... So they will probably even out. We're in no big danger anyway, this happens every 250,000 years, doesn't it? Anyway - never mind - no one can calculate it! Or would someone like to try? That would be interesting...

Fill it the rest of the way with water. All the way to the top, so you have a nice convex meniscus. Allow the ice cubes to melt. This is a remarkably good point. Britain is threatened by the dissolution of the gulf stream, but is there any reason to think that water levels will rise much? Or will they in fact sink? Indeed a good point! It is one of the anomalies of water that it is most dense at 4 ¦C. Ice is less dense than water - that is why ice blocks swim on water and don't sink onto the bottom of the ocean. Therefore melting iceblocks swimming in the water not only won't rise the waterlevel but acrually decrease it! The rise of the global sealevel comes from the fact that ice not in the water (for example at greenland and at the south pole) is melting and even more important, that warmer water needs more space, so the heating up of the oceans increases the level already - ice or not. Now to the rift. As aleady explained, the rift in iceland is part of the mid-atlantic ridge which can be found across the whole length of the atlantic ocean. It is expanding and that is a more or less harmless process, at least compared to those places where the tectonical plates are subduced like at the west coast of south america or at the whole southeast asia - this subducing results in explosive and dangerous vulcanos (Mt St. Helens in US or Pinatubo at the Phillipines as examples). The expanding rift creates a more or less continuous vulcanism with lots of lava but not with big and extremely dangerous explosions. The conculusion: CCP can safely continue to work on their 200-year plan!! cheers
Xerita Caldari Naval Reserve	Posted - 2007.12.12 17:20:00 - [43] In case of a catastrophic disaster, Tranquility has a backup server orbiting the Earth in a hot air balloon.
Nito Musashi	Posted - 2007.12.12 17:22:00 - [44] Global warming is a theory not scientific fact like some people would have you believe, in fact i came across and old discovery from years and years ago with a huge article about global warming that discussed the theory in great detail and said people would not even be able to tell if it was fact or not until something like 2020 something or other when certain man made pollutants would reach detectable levels in the atmosphere. Never mind that 20 some odd years ago scientists were running around screaming about global cooling and its dangers, so take all these alarmists after massive grants for research and pizza money with a grain of salt. Heck i remember back in high school learning that the earth was still coming out of the last ice age, if that is the case you would expect the earth to warm some on its own. Besides there are asteroids that could wipe out 98% of all life on earth in the blink of an eye and certainly take out the eve servers and iceland. There are massive solar flares that could fry all electronics, power systems, satellites, etc in one swoop and destroy eve. Never mind super massive tidal waves that can occur when coastal shelfs fall into the ocean, like california and other places around the world that will devestate costal areas, islands. across the globe and possibly hit iceland. cheery stuff eh?
Anaalys Fluuterby Caldari	Posted - 2007.12.12 17:24:00 - [45] During the last true Ice Age the level of the oceans were some 600 ft. above today's levels.....

Paaaulo	Posted - 2007.12.12 17:25:00 - [46] Iceland very rarely has major earthquakes, and the volcanic eruptions aren't violent, its more like some syrup slowly coming out of a fissure, its not particularly dangerous as you could walk away from it.
Phlox	Posted - 2007.12.12 17:32:00 - [47] Originally by: CCP Atropos I think the chances of being pulled into a rift is pretty minimal. I think they said the same thing about the original EvE Gate, and we all know what happened to that... >_>
Darken Two Gallente Oberon Incorporated Morsus Mihi	Posted - 2007.12.12 17:35:00 - [48] Yes "Vulcanic" activity is a big issue. However, Iceland has a treaty with the Klingons...so it's safe.

CCP Eris Discordia	Posted - 2007.12.12 17:38:00 - [49] I think there would be a fair warning for a major eruption and a lot of CCP is now made up out of foreigners so we can all fly back to our own country and maybe even demand our country to pick us up. And then we ( Ok maybe just me) point and laugh at the Icelanders Snorkling between the plates was awesome but the pictures are horrible and dry suits are not sexy. Pink Dread has been hijacked

Sister Impotentata Elite Angels Of Death	Posted - 2007.12.12 18:24:00 - [53] Certainly the land ice in Antarctica would have an impact on mean sea levels. But I thought, and I'm not sure on this, that the arctic ice cap is expected to be impacted more than the antarctic. When someone mentioned Al Gore talking about the Polar Ice Cap melting, I took the wording to mean the stuff up north. Perhaps "Polar Ice Cap" is also a technical term for what's down south, but I'd think suspect the scientific community wouldn't use the same term to refer to what's up north and down south. "Glaciated Continent" or summat. ----- TANSTAAFL Originally by: Psycho John Petrucci If there's any point where you feel it's too difficult, then just stop.

It is like an electronic fort knox the whole of London could be destroyed by an atom bomb and the building would still be standing and all the electronics safe. Probably because 3 of the worlds major banks feed through the same building.

And then we ( Ok maybe just me) point and laugh at the Icelanders Snorkling between the plates was awesome but the pictures are horrible and dry suits are not sexy. pictures? link?

Hon Kovell Gallente Neh'bu Kau Beh'Hude Ushra'Khan	Posted - 2007.12.13 01:46:00 - [67] The only sensible choice for a geologically secure location for the server is Australia. Sydney, preferably, although I'm willing to accept a more remote location that has hundreds of kilometres of desert surrounding it for that secret hideaway look. Not quite desert, of course. There'll be enough food to feed the ravening hordes of poisonous spiders, snakes, lizards and monotremes. That's so you know you're in Australia. Then the rest of the world can have the high pings! \o/

Robstr Solar Storm	Posted - 2007.12.13 02:50:00 - [69] Originally by: Anaalys Fluuterby During the last true Ice Age the level of the oceans were some 600 ft. above today's levels..... I doubt the fact that the servers are flooded is going to make much impression compared to the rest of our problems if that happens.... Where in the world did you hear this? Because it's very wrong. You cannot have the bering land bridge in that case. That means a large portion of American biology would be impossible. I hate to use wiki here, but this article is quite good http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bering_land_bridge regarding the 'ice in a cup thing': A lot(most) of the ice on the planet is not floating in water. It's on Greenland, Antarctica, tied up in glaciers and permafrost regions. Redo your little experiment with a rock in the glass that comes out of the water, with a bunch of ice cubes on it. ====

Al is grossly misinformed. Only about 10% of the ice in the Ice Caps are exposed, therefore very little water will return to the ocean and raise the levels. What we have to worry about is the land ice caps, but sea ice caps are no problem.
Dommie Jax Caldari Blue Phoenix Research	Posted - 2007.12.13 13:39:00 - [71] Originally by: Benilopax I was told by an engineer once about the building the EVE server is located. It is like an electronic fort Knox the whole of London could be destroyed by an atom bomb and the building would still be standing and all the electronics safe. Probably because 3 of the worlds major banks feed through the same building. Hmmm so now i know where this is Project Chaos can start as in 'FightClub' so to free the masses from the economic might of the banks we must sacrifice the EVE servers sob S'not fair
Aya Otosaki	Posted - 2007.12.13 14:05:00 - [72] Originally by: CCP Atropos I went snorkeling at Thingvellir with a few other CCPers and you basically snorkel between the two tectonic plates. It was pretty awesome. However, even though Iceland has both volcanoes and the potential for earthquakes, I think the chances of CCP being pulled into a rift is pretty minimal. Im sad to inform you that you have been a victim of a tourist myth. You did not snorkel between two tectonic plates. They dont come together at thingvellir. ----- Ignorance is my strength.

Duke Val'Doom The Watchers Society	Posted - 2007.12.14 22:37:00 - [82] Global Warming is a natural process, just as global cooling is, the earth is still getting back to what it was before what ever caused the last ice age. Look at all the fossiles found from prehistoric times, how many were creatures built for extremely cold temps? Also another sign that the earth has been warming for a long time is things like ice burgs that have been around forever....just ask the people from the Titanic. But if you ask the peace pipe smokers like Ben & Jerry.....cow burps will be the destruction of us all!!

"Any ideas on how to alter the orbit?" "Just change the gravitational constant of the universe temporarily." <3 John De Lancie. I propose we move the earth by making half the population jump at exactly the same time. Much more practical solution. As for moving the servers to Denmark, it won't do. Drunk swedes will come and puke on them.
