Hi Rox,
I watched that show also. They suggested that the population of hominids was as low as 5k. I'm at school and do not have the notes I took on that program concerning the location and such. When I get home tonight I'll post the info if no one else has by then.

I found some of the info, the last "super volcano" was Toba in Sumatra approximately 75kya. It had 10,000 times the explosive power of Mt. St. Helens.
The huge caldera that makes up Yellowstone park is swelling and I have read estimates that say it is long overdue to blow.
