Only humans are capable of such “global” impact.

If Al Gore wants to impress me, he should stop the volcano.

Won't this dissipate by the time if reached North America?

The reason I ask, is because it will be traveling over water. Won't that make a difference?

I am wondering if substantial amounts of ash will get into the Polar Jet Stream. A peculiarity of the Jet Stream is that, as it passes over North America, it suddenly “dumps” particulates over about the Kansas area.

This is why we wanted the nuclear atmospheric test ban, because one of the radioactive particles, Strontium 90, would be carried by the Jet Stream and end up right in our breadbasket, where it would land on grasses, and quickly be detected in milk.

And while volcanic ash would not be as harmful, it might still be a serious annoyance.

No clue yet on whether it will be disruptive.

Uh, correct me if I'm wrong, but this could get very interesting on the east coast soon.

My only question is, how do you pronounce Eyjafjallajökull? Anyone know?

How come when Mount St. Helens blew it’s top back in May of 1980, none of the airports in the U.S. were being closed down? I do remember millions of people from Washington State to Minnesota scraping volcano dust off their car windshields and such. I also remember an old cantankerous guy named Harry Truman who decided to ride the volcano out. Whatever happened to him? America could sure use a guy like Harry Truman today.
