Mount Etna is back in action


With Kilauea volcano cooling off after decades of activity and a final (apparently) climactic rift zone eruption that burned and buried a bunch of houses, it's time for another volcano to get hot.  (Of course, there are active volcanoes all around the world, all the time.  But it's more fun to find one that has reactivated.)

In this case, the volcano is Sicily's world-famous Mount Etna.  Put simply, there is activity in the summit craters again.
