Yes, all the schools that collapsed, why?

As many had stated, they are allowed only one child and many are too old 
to have another one now, which has to be doubly painful.

There are quake lakes in the Pacific Rim of Fire, but the ones I have 
been shown are really old, newest ones are like several hundred years 
old, though some were caused by volcanic eruptions and the debris 
gouging out a lake. I grew up next to one of those, 30 miles north of Mt 
Rainer from it's 1820/54? Eruption.
