-== Lahars a threat to people in the area?==
-According to the Article:
-"If the lahars had gone much further, they could easily have threatened people in the Cook Inlet area"
-I'm just wondering how a lahar entering Cook inlet from the Drift River would endanger anybody in the area.   [[User:Senor Cuete|Senor Cuete]] ([[User talk:Senor Cuete|talk]]) 18:54, 31 January 2009 (UTC)Senor Cuete
-== Steep or Not? ==
-According to the Introduction: "Mount Redoubt is not a particularly steep peak..."
-But in the Geology section it says: "The volcano's cone is steep–sided..."
-So, is it steep or not?  [[User:Senor Cuete|Senor Cuete]] ([[User talk:Senor Cuete|talk]]) 15:53, 1 February 2009 (UTC)Senor Cuete
-:That does need to be fixed, although it is not as contradictory as it sounds. In the intro, the implied comparison is supposed to be with all mountains (including non-volcanoes), whereas in the Geology section, I think the comparison is with volcanoes only. I'll try for a fix and see what people think. -- [[User:Spireguy|Spireguy]] ([[User talk:Spireguy|talk]]) 16:22, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
-== Caught the 3rd Explosion on WSR-88D ==
-I copied the animated .gif radar loop (Public Domain, Produced by US Gov.) from the NOAA/NWS site of the 3rd, and largest so far explosion, and put it on my blog at http://zaphodb777.dyndns.org/blog/index.php . If appropriate, someone may wish to grab it, and massage it for inclusion in this article.

-== Minor Edit ==
-Have changed the precision of the volume from -3 to -9. But I suggest that cubic miles and cubic km are more sensible units for mountain volumes. No conversion template for these units.  [[User:Makewrite|Makewrite]] ([[User talk:Makewrite|talk]]) 06:19, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

-:That whole section has seen a lot edits over the past few hours, and none of them have been particularly well-sourced ''or'' encyclopedic.
