AlJazeeraEnglish?

Hmmm...the Aljazeera report is one of the better ones I’ve seen.

The reporter mentioned the last eruption 200 years ago lasted 2 years. Now that would be something — no air travel to Europe for two whole years.

Volcano ping!

[Revolting cat!]

This time it's really

Bush's fault!

By the way, what's the line in Vegas? (I'm flying [?] over there Tuesday.)

I understand from Al Gore that it’s million of degrees underground, so I get the whole volcano thing, but according to Rick Sanchez of CNN, it’s too cold in Iceland for volcanoes ... so I just don’t know what to think anymore ...

This is beginning to scare the hell out of me. I am in the Airplane manufacturing business, and having our customers losing millions everyday is frightening. The months following 9/11 was devastating on us. What could weeks of closed air space mean?

Excellent video — amazing volcano

Here is a scenario - NOT a prediction.

The ash continues to be thrown into the atmosphere, disrupting all air traffic to Europe for a couple of years. Certain Asian leaders, where 25 million of their men have no chance for wives, and certain radical Islamic leaders come to the conclusion that without air power, Europe is a ripe plum for conquest. And, without air support, the United States and our allies suffer massive military losses in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. Obama asks where is Armageddon. God answers in his own way. He may have given Obama his answer. And as future history noted - Obama presided over the most massive military disaster in the history of the United States.

That was amazing. Thanks for posting.

I’m just glad this isn’t 1984 or 1985, I guess this would have damaged our ability to use, maintain, and sustain our air defenses against a Soviet ground attack.

“Red sky at night, a sailor’s delight...”

I am looking at a very orange sunset here in the SF Bay Area. Has the volcanic ash begun to spread eastward ‘round the globe across the Pacific to the U.S.? We will be seeing more red sunsets soon.
