Hi Richard, Aren't volcanos exactly what geothermal refers to, only near or at the surface instead of deep down in the earth?

The onsen icon (♨) is commonly used all over Japan (of course), and is a great icon (a hot bath with steam rising out) to represent a place to get a hot natural bath vs a natural park's hot-spring. "Onsen" always means naturally sourced hot water as well, vs a bathhouse (amenity=spa? showers?),
