This still intrigues me Carl, and I'm not sure if I should proceed in this post. but any hooo......
So, if for instance, the recent quake in QLD might move the magma/mantle plume slightly and could possibly have shifted some of the intrusive rocks to allow a crack/ subsidence and then allow the dormant 'volcano' to re-activate.......
by allowing magma to seep through those cracks and weaken the fissures,
Once again I should probably post this in a new tread.....
