Yes, the one on the right is hooked up to a multifunction timer to shoot time lapse video, while the other is for some good tight shots. I only wish there was some way to remotely trigger my timer if I'm at work so I don't have to come home everyday to a CF card full of cloud shots! |

For the love of God we need to plug this volcano before it does anymore unrepairable damage to the environment. Al Gore dropped from 80,000 feet into the crater ought a do it. Who's with me....God I'm bored.  |

Is his butt big enough to plug the volcano?
Or maybe he has enough gas to blow it back down.

Last time Redoubt went off, the ash seized up the engines on a KLM 747 overflying Anchorage. Luckily it was cold, because it became brittle enough the melted ash broke, and they were able to start two engines. |

Well, according to some of the lower 48 folks, "we" will be inhumane for allowing our animals to breathe volcanic ash.

Maybe we should use all of them for sacrifice to the volcano Gods.
