Good morning, Kit, The buttons are indeed located under a secret panel on the Scientist in Charge's desk. However, we are staying at six for now because it is a pyramidal number, the sacred shape of the stratovolcano. Eight is far too close to an infernal square number. Perhaps we will move to 10 in the future. Thank you for your interest, and mum's the word on the secret panel of volcano activation buttons, John I was wondering if any more volcanoes can be activated in Alaska. It seems six is far too few. I think Alaska needs more like eight. I assumed that each had an activation button, located somewhere Dr. Evil's desk. Perhaps Mr. Bigglesworth could be of assistance? I hope all you Vulcans are doing well up there with the virus. Sincerely, -some lame biologist who dreams of studying volcanoes.
