Volcano VS Thunderstorm

I assume alot of people have seen or will see this email thats going around but..

Quote:
Two of nature’s most spectacular forces produced an incredible brew in the skies of Chile as a volcanic eruption met a lightning storm.
Tonnes of dust and ash from the eruption of the Chaitén volcano poured into the night sky just as an electric storm passed overhead.
The resulting collision created a spectacular sight as lightning flickered around the dust cloud amid the orange glow of the volcano.
The eruption was all the more spectacular because the Chaitén volcano, 800 miles (1,290km) south of Santiago, has been dormant for hundreds — if not thousands — of years

Wow, Mother Nature looks pissed! But seriously, that is amazing. I would have been speechless if I was taking those pics.
