I wonder how many volcanos there are hidden in England, just waiting patiently to join in the chorus when the others around the world start singing.

I would say none as almost all the volcanoes are found near major fault lines. England is to far away from major fault lines

Found some news on one of today's 4.2 quakes

Sorry, I was talking Metaphorically, it just seems that it is too much of a coincidence that this is happening in so many places at the same time, perhaps a Pattern may start to emerge! Especially with all of those close to earth collision objects apparently passing by with "little or no effect"

its an earthquake people - nothing to see , move along.

I agree, Iran sits at the collision point of three major tectonic plates: The Indian plate, Iranian plate and the Arabian plate. I would be more concerned if there were NO earthquakes in Iran!

Apr 20th being the full moon = the rate of quakes goes up. This guy seems to be able to come up with plausible predictions. Many are based on the moon's location.
