There's a joke in balcanology that subduction leads to orogony, which is arogeneous mountain building. I did not get this joke, but i laughed in the moment. We love our terrible puns, and we love anything that is active. So if it's got a terrible pun that can be made, or, you know, it's going to kill everybody, we're into itnoi That is one thing about volcanoes like,. i feel like it's such a thrilling study, because there's like a doom attached to it.
