I hiked to the top once and watched the lava flowing, very cool.

I remember some of that action way back then - very cool stuff. I've got some pictures here I should dig out - much better than the ones I posted.
I snuck behind some Caribinieri (not hard to do) and Forestry trucks back then to 'visit' a lava flow. Poked it with a stick then ran like hell. The noise of the lava smoothing along combined with the tinkling sound of the cooling rock falling away, plus the fire as it goes is heady stuff.
Glad you enjoyed the thread! Hope you come back to visit soon.
peace
Pictures are from my roof - I'm lucky she's in my backyard.
There are more volcanoes erupting today, simultaneously, than in the memory of man. Volcano World lists 540 known volcanoes, 183 of which have erupted within the last 10,000 years.

If you think there is a connection between solar flares and earthquakes, you might want to read Phages thread on this subject.
His collection of data sort of debunks the idea.

I checked the Italian news sites but I cannot find any information relating to this eruption.
When there is the first breaking up of conditions in the South Pacific and the sinking of the Mediterranean and the Etna area then we would say they have begun. [The earth changes].
