it may have fit the basic minimum requirements to be called an "eruption",

but there was no lava or explosions,

it has done similar things like this before.

It has not exploded like this since the second eruption 20-some years ago ...

Get used to it. In the VERY near future that's how all advertising will reach your TV screen. No more fast-forwarding (VCR/PVR/DVR/TIVO) through commercials. You will watch near full-time commericals at the bottom of your screen.
