What could go wrong? This pic is from the Yasur volcano on the southern end of Vanuatu, taken last week.

Re: vanuatu earthquake

It is easy to believe in volcano gods: you watch the earth creating itself; you feel the rumbling in your body; and the molten lava has a peculiar hot rock smell. It is a profound experience.

I hope they get everybody off safe.

The crater lake is only one of many in the chain; all the islands are volcanoes, and they are all populous.
