Volcano oh, no!

If a volcano erupts in Iceland, and nobody is around to hear it, will it stop air traffic in Europe? Apparently so.
Last week's eruption of Mt. (insert random assortment of letters here) on Iceland has put an end to air traffic in Europe as flight controllers decided whether its safe to fly. Ash clouds play havoc with jet engines making air travel unsafe. Now five days after the halting of flights, some folks are finally saying it's time to return to the skies....

@AHaglington It's not certain if air travel restrictions will be lifted tomorrow. The volcano is still active. We are mostly waiting for a wind change.

@_Rosiex3 RT @YouMeAtSixUK: Some legends say we must sacrifice Justin Bieber to appease the volcano.
