So...what do you Euro folks think about this? Personally, I'm a bit worried. There's the potential for a "world ender" here, after all, and this subset of the volcanic chain has produced some...well, awful eruptions in the past several hundred years, not to mention one of the worst in the last 12,000.
Kind of surprised this isn't really getting much attention. It could just be a dud, certainly, but the Iceland authorities seem to be pretty damned serious about the matter.
