Okay, I'm confused now. Do quakes cause tsunamis or volcanoes? Or do volcanoes cause quakes and tsunamis? Or do SUV's cause tsunamis, which in turn cause hurricaines and snowstorms? Do mobil homes still cause tornadoes?

Do mobil homes still cause tornadoes? Tornadoes will still happen, mobile homes only attract them. Sort of like beaches along oceans attracting more tsunamis than we get at lakes here in central Kentucky.

It would appear that quakes (even less major ones) probably cause volcanic eruptions of the Plinian event type by weakening the rock structure above a magma chamber, allowing the pressurized magma to "blow". The Vesuvian eruption of 79 AD followed an earthquake 12 years earlier that may have allowed the magma in the chamber to move up. St. Helen's lateral eruption was immediately preceded by an earthquake. Krakatau' first signs of subsequent eruptions followed earthquakes.

Okay, I'm confused now. Do quakes cause tsunamis or volcanoes? They both can. The tsnuami is generated when a large mass of water is displace suddenly. Although this is commonly associated with earthquakes, an explosive volcanic event could also displace a significant amount of water from an explosion or undersea landslide.
