I’m buried knee-deep in lab work this week, so I don’t know how much internet scouring I will be able to do for new news, however, I should have time for a mailbag column.

So, do you have a burning (no pun intended) volcano question you want answered? Email the question(s) to me and I will try to answer them in a mailbag column later this week.

Send the questions to:

(And while you’re at it, if you have any volcano images you’d like to share, send them to the same email address!)

    I’m game for any and all questions. If I don’t know the answer, I’ll at least try to find someone who might!

    The question I would like to pose to you and your readers is not so much volcano science but rather, volcano effects. Being a somewhat frequent traveller from Seattle to Japan, most recently just two days ago, I’d like to find out what is the most current source of information on commercial flight rescheduling due to airborne ash. The WAAC is great for providing the information on where the ash clouds are and where they are heading and the Flight Tracker link you provided last week is great for looking at specific flights in progress, but the airlines seem a bit opaque about up-to-date information on whether they are encountering delays and diversions. Are there some other sources travellers can check for current information?

    thanks,

    doug (from Nagoya)

    Are there volcanoes on Venus? Are there volcanoes on Enceladus? What solar bodies in the system have volcanoes and how do their respective volcanoes differ?

    I’ve read that Chaiten is low in sulfur dioxide and high in water vapor. What volcanoes are different, weird or out of the ordinary compared to what is normal? I know this is subjective, like beauty, but I’d like to hear what others have to say. I’m no volcanic wizard, just a science buff.

    Why exactly was that picture you posted of Sarychev Peak erupting so amazing? Can you explain some of the science behind the distinctive features in that picture? In particular, why have the clouds cleared in a perfectly circular pattern around Sarychev, and why does the ash cloud look so distinctive?

    The Internet destroyed most of the barriers to publication. The cost of being a publisher dropped to almost zero with two interesting immediate results: anybody can publish, and more importantly, you can publish whatever you want.

    Likewise, among the many stuff that Cornell will take just about all newly arriving freshman to carry out can be Alcohol-Wise, an internet based alcohol education lessons. There’s no doubt that I’m the only person my buddies which in fact have to do something of this nature, so I reckon Cornell genuinely seems we need to really be familiar with alcohol/drinking. It turned out most certainly attractive interesting…at smallest I notice people who I transferred my best 1st Cornell experiment.

    Most of the things you articulate happens to be astonishingly precise and it makes me wonder why I hadn’t looked at this with this light previously. Your article really did turn the light on for me personally as far as this particular subject goes. However there is 1 issue I am not necessarily too comfortable with so whilst I try to reconcile that with the core idea of your point, let me observe exactly what all the rest of the readers have to point out.Nicely done.

    As far as the keeper pool.. we have plenty of time to figure out our options, really. But something we can really seriously consider here. I kind of wanted to do up a prediction league for the playoffs, but that is a lot of work (and really, doesnt work for people like N.O. that dont have much time to make picks).

    We have caused it by not employing our own country, we have gone outside this nation to bring wealth to ourselves. We have skirted the taxes, we have empowered ourselves by stepping on others heads. We have become a very greedy, prideful nation no longer having pride or respect for the founders and suffering that brought us this freedom.
