I would personally say no because it involves no trend or "reaction" to any previous cultural impact.  I think strauss and howe mention that America has been a good model for the saeculum "science" because it has not been affected generally by things like annexation by larger power or on-soil wars or natural disasters.  Although I do not think they actually used the words natural disaster.  Can a force of nature be considered a valid component of saeculum movements?  

Seriously what does anyone think??

-- maybe.. wrt Yellowstone, l remember reading somewhere that if somebody drops a bomb on Cheyenne Mountain this could aggrevate Yellowstone, making it blow, which would put an end to any war (nuclear or otherwise) & in the case of a nuclear war, prevent the planet from becoming totally radioactive, allowing civilization to rebuild. So if Yellowstone blew as a result of a Crises War, l would say that could be considered a valid component of that saeculum movement
