In the Ring of Fire

While exploring our area using Google Maps earlier, I switched to the Terrain view. I've already known that the nearby mountain is an extinct--perhaps even just a dormant--volcano. And the Terrain view clearly backed this up. What was even a scarier discovery though was to see the entire Southern and Central Luzon region dotted with mountains topped with what were clearly craters--Mt. Pinatubo among them. Imagine being surrounded by all those extinct volcanoes any of which could come back to life anytime now.
