Ashes to Ashes

Fascinated to hear the radio phone ins about the disruption to flights.  Challenging and horrible for those stranded it is.  Worrying that several people suggested 'something should be done' as though we could simply drop concrete into the vents and close the volcano down.  Even more worrying the early panic that we're going to run out of air freighted stuff and as yet no mention of any sustainable options that take a bigger picture view of how we organise ourselves.
