Amazing pictures Zanza!  :worthy:

Oh and the volcano is very quickly slowing down. It'll just be a local issue now instead of a global one.

Reuters is saying that the right pronounciation of Eyjafjallajokull is "ay-yah-FYAH-lah-yer-huhl".

Is that correct?

And the pics are amazing. I'm saving almost all of them.

On the radio I heard about how hundreds of thousand of travelers were stranded, even in places like LA because of planes couldn't get to where they needed to be; and how auto manufacturing plants in Germany and elsewhere were shutting down production because the flow of parts was impeded.

I read stuff like that to.  Such as African Roses being destroyed because they can't send them to Europe.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Ruled out by Libyan leader Muammar GaddafiMuammar Gaddafi on Tuesday, the Arab region affected by the crisis caused by following the volcanic ash cloud emitted from the volcano, Iceland, which he described as "divine punishment of human beings."

This came in a speech by Libyan leader during the inauguration of the 43 session of the General Conference of the Union of Arab Universities, hosted by the University of Sirte on the Libyan city of Sirte, where Gadhafi expressed regret at the failure of Arab science.

He also criticized the Arab inability to invest their wealth and waste of funds, including many up in the end to their loss of these funds in a crisis such as the financial crisis that swept the world, adding that he had lost some of the Arab money and a half trillion dollars.

He pointed out that it is very shameful that a nation of these possibilities and this history and these challenges they face, did not make an effort to invent or develop anything deep and influential.

And asked the Arabs to the attention of scientific research and the abandonment of the traditional process in which we are now.

He pointed out that economists now say that the Arabs in their activity by the so-called economy, not yet at the stage of economic development, it is a cash deposit or architectural structures, and this is not economical.

I'd suggest the two bolded sections are somehow connected.
