If the ancients who saw
archers, twins,
lions, virgins and so forth in the random alignment
of stars
could have had our technology, what would they have
made
of this picture (from BBC news) of the volcanic
ash cloud travelling across northern skies?
Depending on your point of
view, it's
either a Disney cartoon dragon, one of the monsters
described
in the Apocalypse or, well, um, a volcanic ash cloud
moving across Europe and beyond.
