Hopefully, they're pasta crisis stage...
I lava good Stromboli....
Didn't Stromboli's family own Al Sharpton's?
During the travels of Odysseus after the Trojan wars, he skirted these islands where mountains moved and Harpies sung!

Hi have a look on this resource update:
http://www.volcanoetna.net/en/news-e-events/eruzione-stromboli-2007.html
Thank you for that mud flow update. I was looking for info on that yesterday to no avail.
They could put a giant rubber balloon down the hole and inflate it with concrete once they have the mud flow down to where they can insert something against the flow. Just an idea.
I fail to ziti humor in that.
One little active volcano=> 300 years of industrial pollution
In the old days they
would sacrifice a virgin . . .
What am I saying?
They'd better stick with
the giant concrete balloons.
(They can buy concrete . . .)
It is my belief that the Tyrrhenian Sea is a mini ring of fire. Just looking at the shape of the western side of Italy and the corresponding islands leads me to believe there was an extra-catastrophic event in that region in pre-historic times. It looks a lot like the geography of Santorini (caldera) except on a larger scale.
You've got the Greats Vesuvio, Etna (Sicilia), Stromboli, and another 14 or so volcanoes throughout the region to support this hypothesis. I heard some buzz about Vesuvio yesterday, but could only find recent articles about scientific speculation.
