Hi Gary,

I have not been to Hawaii, as I cannot afford it at the moment. The
Hawaii volcano is a slow lava, it comes forward slowly and does the
damage when it comes down. The volcanoes in Iceland are the most common
types. The one that are like the one in Hawaii and the one that makes a
ash clould. Sometimes that is a mixture of both.

With my first ever harmonic tremor recorded this weekend. I know that my
plots are going to look intresting the Hekla volcano starts erupting.
But my Heklubygg=F0 seismomiter is only about ~12km away from that
volcano.

Regards,
J=F3n Fr=EDmann.
