    Fair enough. Let's see if I can make it not too obvious.

    Try this for a clue:

    Ultimately there should be one more movie sequel than there were in the Rocky series.

    Hear hear! I've looked at eight bazillion active volcanoes and none match this little conflagration - I'm beginning to think what we're seeing is the tribal bonfire of one of those reality shows and they've just burnt the cameraman and the MC in open revolt!

    Sorry, I got carried away washing the car. How did it get to be dark already? :)

    I'm not sure this is a volcano, to be honest, but where there's smoke, there's fire. A really tiny one, near shores both Eastern and Western.

    Look for an area where 'oceans apart' might not be so far. And it's not necessarily an ocean you're looking at.

    I love the look of those lakes.

    Heavenly unless you lived here.

    Hmm, I was thinking Devil's Island off of French Guiana (where Papillon was imprisoned), but Google maps refused to give me that kind of resolution there.
