  7. Neat photos
    Earth doesn't look the same to me after taking an Earth Disasters geology course. Photos of Seattle may be nice, but all I see is the alto volcano in the distance.

  18. I wouldn't want ot live near a volcano. I visited Mount St. Helens in 1990 ten years after it blew its top. It was unreal to see the results of it.
