nonono... it is quite alright... i was staying away from check boxes and dialogs 
based on the statement of not having dialogs for each volcano... i don't know 
how many volcanoes there are in the world but i don't think we want a dialog 
covering all of them and if they are displaying lava effects or not ;)

uncle google gave me the following, though...

===== snip =====
1500 volcanoes
There are probably millions of volcanoes that have been active during the whole 
lifespan of the earth. During the past 10,000 years, there are about 1500 
volcanoes on land that are known to have have been active, while the even larger 
number of submarine volcanoes is unknown.
