It only took seconds to bring about one of Washington’s largest ecological disaster and the world’s largest recorded landslide. On May 18, 1980, Mount St. Helens’ summit washed out in an enormous landslide, causing a large explosion that threw volcanic rock, ash and gas into the air. However, eyes have turned to Pierce and South King County’s beautiful backdrop, Mount Rainier, which has taken its place as Washington’s, and even the nation’s, most dangerous volcano.

Second, there has to be rapport between the company and the consumer. The news industry is no different than a business in this sense. Information is a valuable commodity that will never depreciate, so the need for TV news stations and newspapers remains strong.

When I was in the fourth grade, my classroom was selected to be one of the first classes in the district to use a smart television.
