IT IS THE END OF THE WORLD.

I start my stopwatch to see who says this was a prediction from some old man 100's of years ago, probably high on some kind of drug and alcohol.

Rolling Eyes No. The end of the world coming at December 23, 2012. Ash over the west EU is just a sign of things to come. Laughing

20,000+ slights canceled

The unions are jealous that it is a bigger disruption then their obsessive striking.

The skies are nice and quiet, not even military flights. Nothing in the sky.

On the 24th Dec 2012 I will no doubt be reading about THE END OF THE WORLD in 2022 or 2222.

Smile Yes, probably, but it is fascinating and impressive how accurate calendar existed 1000's years ago...

On the other way, some other things are visible (and they are exact) and I am more worried about this http://climate.nasa.gov/keyIndicators/

I don't know is that normal or not... but it looks like too many extreme natural disasters happened lately...
Just this year; earthquake in Haiti, Chile, tsunami, storms in France and Spain, people died of cold in few European countries, here in Serbia floods, floods and storms in Australia, earthquake in China few days ago, now this ash from Iceland... and who know how many I forgot and/or I didn't hear about...

Thanks,
Yours Sincerely,
Notice:
Shipping to Europe, especially to UK and North Europe will be delayed by the volcanic eruption in Iceland
- A volcanic eruption in Iceland will have great impact on the shipping speed to these areas. The Flights departing to London were impacted on Thursday as all flight operations from major UK airports were stopped after ashes from a volcanic eruption in Iceland spread into Irish and north European airspace.
We are not sure when the situation will be better. Thus, before that, we appreciate your patience and understanding for the shipping delivery delay to these areas.
