I know that it's a big pain in the ass and people are stranded and everybody's losing a lot of money on this deal. But deep down inside of me there's a Scandinavian Studies Degree screaming HAHAHA THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR IGNORING THE NORDIC COUNTRIES! WHO'S READING ABOUT ICELAND NOW, HUH? HOW DO YOU LIKE 'EM NOW, GORDON BROWN?

The BBC's

Do you watch Scrubs?

This is what the Icelandic Language Scholars looked like when CNN called and said they didn't know how to pronounce the name of the volcano.

Not to mention last time it erupted in the twenties it was on and off for, oh, about two years. This could get very interesting...

I know! It's really fun for me when my countries of interest make the news. For the most part, they're efficiently run and the populace is either happy or Lutheran repressed. Not big noisemakers, those guys.
