Ummmm, did you know the last time this same Icelandic volcano erupted in 1821 it didn't stop spewing ash for two years? And that 20,000 people in England died from respiratory issues as a direct result of it? I hope you've been to Europe because there might not be a flight there for a bit, and when there is one, who knows what kind of havoc it will have caused. Oh, and if you're wondering how to pronounce the name, click here and then realize it's even harder than it looks to say.
