My 18 year old daughter grabbed me at noon Friday to show me the news. "Look, Mt. St. Helens is erupting". I looked at the new coverage, and said "No, it's just farting. See that massive crater the fart is in the middle of, now that's was an eruption." I had to explain to her how that crater did not exist before 1980, and the mountain was a lot taller before that. Then I told her about the ash drift to the east. I'm anticipating a little (large) geology lesson for her in the coming days.
