Kicking our ash

You might have caught on the news that we've been having some difficulties here in Europe in the last week.
Flights are now open, and authorities have decided that they overreacted to the ash cloud that Iceland sent our way a week ago.
However, there is another volcano near the one that exploded that often erupts when the other one does.
This volcano, news quotes suggest, would sent out TEN TIMES the amount of ash as the first volcano, and probably would have us riding in horse and buggies by the time it's through.
So, for those buying plane tickets to Europe this summer, a suggestion. Make certain that you understand how such an eruption would affect you financially if your plane flight is canceled. Mother Nature can be fickle.
