And nobody even questions it.

Don’t you think there is something wrong with this picture?

No, not really.

There are particles up there that are bad for jet engines. That doesn't mean to say they necessarily obscure vision.

You know, the ash particles are quite invisible for human sight, but they're quite a menace to jets..

I don't think we have been fooled as the ash clouds are very high and they are not visible for people, but for planes they are really dangerous.

It could really mean something if a new conspiracy theory would born from this volcano eruption...

The ash thing we have been kept busy since the election was called does seem rather odd to me, because we have had this type of thing in the far east, Italy, Russia, all over the whole world, this is not the first volcano, I feel it wont be the last either, yet why no plane ban before this one? I cannot help thinking this is like a certain flu bug scare, but they would not, would they?
