I did an excellent job of forgetting my notes from GSA 2009, so no wrap up on the meeting until tomorrow, but we do have some new volcano news to digest:

Don't tell the Scientologists. They may think it's the end of the world. (What to do with all these frozen thetans, oh nooo!)

That ISS photo is awesome.

FYI... The Reventador article says that 3 provinces were put on alert about the possibility of an eruption, they have not been evacuated yet.
