THANKS for all your efforts on such, blam.

Interesting, indeed.

The Global warming folks love this. Now the can use this as a rallying cry.

How does this eruption compare with Tambora in 1815, which had global climate consequences for a couple of years?

Since every observable natural event is a result of global warming, they don't even need this.

What’s worse, there is another volcano that Islandic authorities feel is attached to the one that is erupting now, and is very likely to erupt itself over the next few weeks. It has happened before, and could easily happen again.

Lots of Geo-physical and tectonic activity going on around the globe...

By the way, if that glacier is melting should we be prepared for the hennie-pennies of the world to start shouting hysterically about the rising oceans...??

When are they going to fine Iceland for their “pollution”? The CO2 being put out by Iceland is enormous!

do a web search on Katla

don’t pack away your winter underwear quite yet

Clearly this is Bush’s fault.

Thanks.

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.

Wouldnt it be interesting if this just went on for years and buried europe in 35 ft. of volcanic ash.... I mean seriously, who could stop it?

Actually, this works in our favor. The ash in the upper atmosphere will cause colder winters for a while. Global warming solved!

I cannot imagine Iceland recovering from this disaster.

They have a monumental financial crisis

They have this volcano

And they have floods spawned by melting ice

Seems the dislocation will be massive.

[al baby]

peanut farmers are hard hit too

[silverleaf]

diversify into sealift

If this continues or gets worse (Katla blows, etc, toxic gas plume to europe,, not just ash) the entire north Atlantic basin is gonna look like Dunkirk

[wolfcreek]

So, what’s plan B if this thing continues?
