[Rockhounds] Iceland hit by thousands of quakes and threat of volcanic eruption

[pmodreski at aol.com]

The title of this article made it sound like the thousands of quakes were related to the threat of eruption--implying that the one was going to cause or be a warning of the other.  But, reading further & some other online stories, I realize that these are two unrelated things--the earthquake swarm is up by the north coast (Akureyri) and Grimsvotn, is down in central Iceland.
