We may have some spectacular sunsets due to the volume of ash put into the atmosphere by this volcano.
LOL - Rick Sanchez needs to change his first name - I’m offended that he carries that moniker. What a moronic imbecile. So, what about Alaska then? And it is either the Arctic or Antarctic that has a volcano that is beneath the ice sheet. How about all the volcanoes that are on the ocean floor? Sanchez is an affirmative action idiot.
I’d hold out for a longer name. That one is too short and easy to remember.
I noticed that at least since 1600, E.... has erupted roughly every 200 years.
It has erupted right on target.
Amen to that! Global warming was man’s (Al Gore) lame attempt to think he has more control over what happens on Earth than God or Mother Nature. We know that’s not the case!!
Which means Katla (the bigger more dangerous neighbor) will erupt in GULP - 2012!!!!!! OH NOES!!!!!!;-)
The "Year Without a Summer" was caused by the much more massive Tambora eruption in Indonesia.
Rick probably thinks that if you climb Mt. Everest, you won't need a coat because you're closer to the sun.
Next week, it’ll be the winning answer in Final Jeopardy.
They still grow food in Europe I presume. So if the two volcanoes go off in tandem and spew as much ash as they have in the past what happens to agriculture in Europe? The effects will eventually be world-wide so what are the likely effects for agriculture world-wide? If we had a “year without summer” before I assume we can have one again.
The headline date is a typo. The Year Without a Summer (a.k.a. “Eighteen-hundred-and-froze-to-death”) of 1816 was caused by the eruption of Tambora in Indonesia, not by Icelandic volcanoes.
He probably shared the concern about Guam capsizing from too many people.
Nature sure is showing al gore what for...lol Really these eco fruit cakes are arrogant or stupid, or both.
The Laki volcano is considered a central cause of the French Revolution, as it led to a poor harvest and public unrest in the country.
Yes, but our earth-worshippers are much more advanced now: they realize that causing misery to the whole of the industrialized world is a much better way to propitiate the angry earth and weather gods than sacrificing a virgin or two.
Well, with that kind of logic, we need to shoot him into orbit without a space suit so he can test out his theory.
I might pick up a few extra packs of seed. Beet, turnip, carrot, peas, broccoli, cabbage, greens for any non-gardeners who are suddenly considering starting to.
We really only have one. This volcano is pitiful compared to what would be necessary to impact climate.
However, if it gets worse or triggers its neighbor, oh no.
I thought the volcano Gods needed sacrifices? I say we vote on which enviroweenies we throw in I nominate Gore first!
Does anyone here think that all of the earthquakes that the Earth has been having lately has somehow “uncorked” volcanic activity worldwide.
