I'd suggest they look for places on the Kona Coast.

They at least know more about volcanoes.

I start here, This is volcano close to you. 1980
For once some logical thinking out of the dark side

This sort of mirrors one thing I noticed about the islands. When you lose your income/home you're really screwed.
You can't get off the thing to go find a new job or a new home. Last time someone I knew went there said that the parks were a little scary because they were filled with homeless people.

Yes Saint Helens was an awesome sight.......but then its just one of the active volcanoes that are erupting on each continent.

Thanks......I'll check into it......but I know I'd not live there.

I'd say that might not be the best place......since its on a relatively recent lava flow.

yes i can see a bunch of dried lava flows around it in google earth

Hawaii’s Mount Kilauea Volcano Mysteriously Reverses Compasses
If you’re planning a volcano-watching trip to Hawaii’s Mount Kilauea and you want to find it using something other than its lava flow, it may behoove you to use your GPS rather than a good old-fashioned compass. Explorers, scientists, orienteering competitors and others dependent on magnetic navigation have discovered that their compasses point in the wrong direction as they approach Mount Kilauea.
Is this yet another cruel trick being played by the goddess Pele on those who steal her volcanic gases and lava rocks?
Actually, the suspected reason for this mysterious magnetic mayhem is more scientific than folkloric but still puzzling. The news comes from The Daily Express and, while it’s not exactly current news nor related to the current lava flow, it’s interesting and possibly frightening to those who believe the Earth may soon flip its magnetic polarity, causing real havoc far greater than the revenge of Pele.
Mount Kilauea appears to be one of the few volcanoes with this compass-reversing power and The Daily Express traced the cause to a 2008 study by Brad Singer, a geology professor at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, and paleomagnetist (talk about specializing) Kenneth Hoffman.
“When the lava flows erupt and cool in the Earth’s magnetic field, they acquire a memory of the magnetic field at that time. It’s very difficult to destroy that in a lava flow once it’s formed. You then have a recording of what the paleofield direction was like on Earth.”
In other words, the iron-rich lava rocks underneath Mount Kilauea and places Singer and Hoffman studied, including Tahiti and western Germany, are a picture of what the Earth’s magnetic field looked like when they solidified. In Kilauea’s case, that was over 780,000 years ago – just prior to the last polar flip known as the Matuyama-Brunhes reversal.

Probably true......but I didn't need any of the above except for a road map which worked just fine.
