    @Earlz: Judging by what it's doing to European airlines, perhaps it's pronounced status-declined. ;)

    "How is Eyjafjallajokull pronounced?" Just like it's spelled.

Pollyanna's prophecy:

This site is headed for a disaster of biblical proportions, real wrath of God type stuff.!

Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies!

Rivers and seas boiling!

Forty years of darkness!

Earthquakes, volcanoes...

The dead rising from the grave! Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together...

Mass hysteria!

    @json -depends on whether the lava is getting to the water or not. I'd say [status-completed].

Turns out the Face on Mars is actually a virus planets can get. I think Earth and Mars had a thing a while ago and this is the result.

Lately it's been awkward between them... Mars is kinda cold and distant.

    Earth definitely has a much, much worse case. Perhaps, Mars was right and Earth gave it to him, not the other way around.

Edvard Munch paints 'the scream' in 1893 (1 + 8 + 9 + 3 = 21 = 2 + 1 = 3).

This volcano erupts in 2010 (2 + 0 + 1 + 0 = 3)

Coincidence? I DON'T THINK SO

Consider this: 2010-1893 = 117 (and 1 + 1 + 7 = 9 = 3 * 3 !!!)
