"I don't know
I don't know
I don't know where I'm a gonna go
When the volcano blow
But I don't want to land in New York City
Don't want to land in Mexico
Don't want to land in the Three Mile Island
Don't want to see my skin aglow [...]"
-- from "Volcano" by Jimmy Buffet (on the album, Volcano)
[I remember where I was thirty years ago today. And how aghast my classmates were when I tried to make a joke about it too soon, while we were all still trying to understand how large the affected area could wind up being and whether we were in danger. And the SNL skit a week or so later.]
