Everything is relative. I get your point. It doesn't mean they aren't currently erupting, and that was my main point.
I apologize if I appeared to be misleading anyone.
These volcanoes are so isolated, even the Cook Inlet ones 80 miles west of Anchorage, the worst case scenario would be ash shutting down the Anchorage airport for an extended period of time - which is an economic disaster for Alaska.
There is seismic action at the north pole, has been for a couple days.
He might enjoy this as well.

...Maybe I need to reserve a room at HI. Fastinating geologic activity on the whole Pacific rim. The earthquake in Indonesia, North pole, Japan, Alaska, North west. Will Southern Cal. be next? Something to think about, folks. I'll be watching from the Atlantic side...
that is why the pacific rim is called the ring of fire;volcanco's and earthquakes
The global-warming alarmists must be thrilled...
Speaking of activity, how's the undersea activity off Washington progressing? Have they got the research vessle on station yet? I haven't seen any followup posts about it.
