Well, its official now: the only road to the eruption site from the researchers shelter at Dreki is now under half a dozen meters of glowing rock. But if only that was the only new problem people are facing - theres lots going on thats trying to shut things down: * Shutting down traffic in Paris * Shutting down water supplies in east Iceland * Shutting down towns from smothering gas * Shutting down scientific investigations The scientists working on the scene say its like working on the moon. They have to bundle up to the point that you can barely see each others faces - and yet still have to do standard precautions like masks. Visibility is low and the winds are howling and blowing snow and sand. Its become very hard to work - but its their job, so they still head out. A lot of equipment is battery powered and will outright stop giving readings if not serviced. dailykos/story/2014/09/27/1332731/-B-r-arbunga-Shutting-It-Down
