im shocked im the first to post about it, they got rocked! watching some of the videos and footage of it was just crazy. watching houses and basically everything just get washed away like paper blew me away. hopefully the death toll isnt as bad as i think it'll be, i saw a few cars get swept up in some of the videos while trying to get away from the area. pretty sad stuff.

My Moms side of the family is Indonesian, and my sister (adopted cousin) is getting married this month. Both my parents flew out this morning with a lay over in Japan, thankfully their flight was today and not yesterday, otherwise they would have been in that tsunami that hit Tokyo Narita airport. While they closed the airport, the flight still departed O'hare ontime but was of course diverted to a different airport in Japan. I guess everything will work out fine for them, I just hope the quakes and waves are over.

It is crazy... Heard the crap going on about the cooling system at one of their powerplants?


If we were to ever help a country that needs it Japan better be on that list....

It is crazy watching the power of the wave crash through everything.

Japan's technology and knowledge of making their building earthquake proof is just amazing. Unlike New Zealand who didn't get that kind of a magnitude.

Yeah its some crazy ****, seeing that 80mph wave of mud/water destroy and swallow up every thing in its path is what really blew me away.

This should be a wake-up call to the people in the L.A area. This could happen at anytime, to them.

And what are they going to do about it? Move? 2nd largest city in the US, and they all better up and move for a Tsunami that hasn't happened yet........ROFL.

No but maybe be a little prepared for a bad situation... food/water for a week or two on hand...


Making me think I should be prepared and I don't even really have anything to worry about.

Gotta love paranoia. Its like expecting to be in a train wreck and not step foot on a locomotive in 20 years. I could understand preparing for a hurricane in your case, but not MAJOR flooding out of the blue. I don't worry about such things.

I didn't mean it like they should move?? Sorry you misinterpreted what I meant.
It should be a wake-up call that, an earthquake of that magnitude could happen at anytime.

Obviously you can't live your life worrying but you should at least be aware of possible threats.... An earthquake is of more concern than the subsequent tsunami for the people in LA.

Well, I think if you live in LA, Oakland, SF, its kinda on your mind, especially if you were born before 1989.....
