We as a species, for the first time on this planet, has the ability to know before hand of an impending super volcano...With this knowledge, can prepare accordingly with the necessary steps and measures to reduce human casualties, prevent wide spread disaster and divert and deflect the flow of magma towards the ocean.

Are there any emergency evac plans in place?
I mean, wth would people be able to do to save themselves if it did go up?
Evacuation plans for 300,000,000+ people? Yeah, right.
What would people be able to do. Pretty much Nada.

OK this does not look good! I just hope they just making a big deal out of routine swarms.
but then again?
Right now, the ground underneath Yellowstone National Park is rising at a record rate. In fact, it is rising at the rate of about three inches per year. The reason why this is such a concern is because underneath the park sits the Yellowstone supervolcano – the largest volcano in North America. Scientists tell us that it is inevitable that it will erupt again one day, and when it does the devastation will be almost unimaginable. A full-blown eruption of the Yellowstone supervolcano would dump a 10 foot deep layer of volcanic ash up to 1,000 miles away, and it would render much of the United States uninhabitable. When most Americans think of Yellowstone, they tend to conjure up images of Yogi Bear and “Old Faithful”, but the truth is that sleeping underneath Yellowstone is a volcanic beast that could destroy our nation in a single day and now that beast is starting to wake up.
Until recently, Bob Smith had never witnessed two simultaneous earthquake swarms in his 53 years of monitoring seismic activity in and around the Yellowstone Caldera.
Now, Smith, a University of Utah geophysics professor, has seen three swarms at once.

There's nothing wrong with being optimistic, but no we cannot predict an erruption by studying the behaviour of a volcano. Also, we cannot 'prepare accordingly' as the gov't will have to recommend that an enormous chunk of the United States deserts their homes immediately, just encase it bursts anytime within the next 100 years. It's isn't going to happen.
Divert the flow of magma towards the ocean? You have been watching too many (straight to dvd release) films.

Sure, I do watch a lot of movies, that is were a lot of my inspiration comes from.
What your saying is that diverting the flow of lava is IMPOSSIBLE? because it's in the movies that man can't do it?
I put more faith in the human race, you should too. We can DAM whole rivers, Create Canals in panama, Fly into space, yet you don't think that diverting the flow of magma is something that we can't do?
Will it be easy? no. Can we succeed? I don't see why not. This is a challenge and humans are remarkable when it comes to challenges.
You sir haven't seen enough movies. Have some faith.

Maybe divert it into Yellowstone lake maybe, but to divert it into the ocean? I don't think you realize how far the Pacific is from Yellowstone park. I'm not saying it can't be done, it can, but it would take up a lot of resources and man power and lots and lots of capital! All for a volcanoe that may or may not erupt. Plus who is to say we know where exactly the lava will come from. It could erupt anywhere!

Forming canals is different to controlling the direction of hundreds, maybe thousands of lava flows simultaneously.
