The fact that a cloud from a minor volcanic eruption in Iceland—a small disturbance in the complex mechanism of life on the Earth—can bring to a standstill the aerial traffic over an entire continent is a reminder of how, with all its power to transform nature, humankind remains just another species on the planet Earth.

If ever I hear again of any lapse from a proper standard of infantile decorum, I shall ask for your transference to a Sub-Centre–preferably to Iceland. Good morning.

Poem of the day 1. nóvember 2010:

Tunglskin
Og vatnið starir, starir köldum augum
á stirndan himin yfir bleikum tindum.
Og inn í dalnum dökkir skuggar trjánna við dapra geilsa tunglsins stíga dans.

Og yfir sandinn, langar óraleiðir,
lýsir tunglið spor þín, þreytti maður,
og bregður köldum, annarlegum glampa
á andlit þitt.

Ég sé þig hverfa, hverfa inn í skuggann.
Og yfir öllu vakir þögnin - þögnin.

Steinn Steinarr

Neither mine nor other people's prospects seem particularly pleasing just at the moment, and I have fantasies of going to Iceland, never to return. As it is, I tell myself not to remember the past, not to hope or fear for the future, and not to think in the present, a comprehensive program that will undoubtedly have very little success.

There is no more sagacious animal than the Icelandic horse. He is stopped by neither snow, nor storm, nor impassable roads, nor rocks, glaciers, or anything. He is courageous, sober, and surefooted. He never makes a false step, never shies. If there is a river or fjord to cross (and we shall meet with many) you will see him plunge in at once, just as if he were amphibious, and gain the opposite bank.

Jules Verne
