Found this group of pics at mbl.is that has lots of links to various Icelandic reports and descriptions.

By the way - should anyone have the contacts, pass this along:

Great photos. Hope you were wearing a mask. That stuff supposedly really messes with the lungs.

Amazing.

“The awesome power of Nature, and the futility of Man’s Plans to control it

Unless you are Al Gore who can’t control it either.

Obama should have not have mocked God....with his where is Arnageddon comment

President Barack Obama. “Leaders of the Republican Party ... called the passage of (the health care reform bill) ‘Armageddon.’ Armageddon! ‘End of freedom as we know it.’ So after I signed the bill, I looked around to see if there were any asteroids falling or some cracks opening up in the earth. Turned out it was a nice day. Birds were chirping. Folks were strolling down the Mall.”

"This is (was?) Iceland's most fertile farmland"

And now you know why. Rich nutrients belched up from the earth. Give it two years and it will be back to very fertile farmland.

The acid rain from volcanic eruptions is bad for farming and livestock, but the ash itself is wonderful fertilizer.
