I was living in Junction City, Oregon at the time (about 20 miles north of 
Eugene).  I remember watching on TV about MSH blowing its top.  We had to deal 
with the ash a few days later.  I remember everyone worried about their cars 
getting ruined from sucking in ash.  I was more worried about myself at the 
time (I was nine years old).  My mom made me and my sister wear respirators if 
we went outside.

Somewhere, I have a big chunk of MSH ash if it hasn't been stolen...

Later,
Sean
