That's as good a volcano name as Krakatoa!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Wow, volcanoes cause lightning? Awesome, in a scary way.
So is Iceland like Hawaii - basically made up of mostly volcanoes?

Exactly. It straddles the border between the Atlantic and European plates. In fact, at points on the island, you can see where the line between the two is expanding; it's a canyon in the middle of the island that is growing annually by the same rate as fingernails grow.

OK, somehow the concept of a canyon between plates is creepy. Like you might fall in and disappear into a void.
Much -ma to the sister, Fay--what is British medicine like, would they really send an envelope if it was bad news?!?!

did anyone else just go to a place where you wondered if OPI has a color named after the canyon? No? Just me? okthenasyouwere.

Has anyone read any good articles or papers or whatever on the future of mobile devices recently?

Ha! Well, NOW I am. And if not, I think we should propose one.
Those pictures are awesome in the actual awe sense.

Seconding meara. I would not expect a letter from my doctor if a test came back with dire results: they would call me to set up an appointment to talk over it. At least, I hope they would!

Suela, I though of you the other night: I introduced The Boy to Farscape with S1, Episode 1.
I had to keep reassuring him that it gets SO MUCH WEIRDER and smoking-the-whacky-crack-ier.
Damn, Ben Browder is so hot.
