It really is getting beyond a joke now. Started from a volcano in Iceland, now it's spreading all across northern Europe, stopping all air travel in the UK and in some European countries. I know some of you guys live in America where you won't notice at all, but feel for us European people who can't go on holiday or go on a plane until tommorow. Dang it. Is it effecting any of you guys or is it just me?

I hate the fact that you get people moaning at the airlines that they can't use a plane. Yeah, because it's thier fault they haven't got control of volcanos...and if they do...Then God help us all.

Probably due to the fact I don't have to fly anywhere.

I think its cool and really interesting. Its a once in a lifetime experience to see a volcanic cloud and not have it rain shit upon you.

What kind of joke would it be? "Hey guys, lets create volcanic ash to stop air travel and piss people off!"

Well, at least this was a disaster that (as far as we know) wasn't fueled by mankind destroying the planet.

Is this another proof we aren't taking care of the Earth? Or just some natural disaster?

Neither, The actual cause is terrorists, Adolf Hitler, and John Wilks Booth.

Duh.

We've never taken care of the Earth.

Actually, my geology teacher thinks this is the case. He says that, because of the Icesave incident, the Icelanders have been 'irritating' the volcano to annoy the Scots, Brits and us Dutchers.

I don't know what to say, I just hope it doesn't cause a massive cooldown, we just got great weather here.

I'm so lucky I live in Florida. Ash blocking out the sun and shit is one of my greatest fears. I'd either panic; "JESUS CHRIST WHAT'S GOING ON!" or be calm and collected, but still kind of freaked out. "Jesus Christ, what is going on?"
You're in Europe? Don't they make a shit ton of shoes or something there?
