i am worried about nz, we seem to get all these volcanic things happening there when a volcano erupts on the other side of the world, they always say its not linked but its always within hours, days or weeks of the other events so to me no coincidence, tons of active and semi active volcanoes in NZ and apparently some 10,000 years ago the eruption of auckland landmark Rangitoto was 10 times more powerful at least than Krakatoa, NZ is a bit of a ticking time bomb
