Does this have anything to do with the Super Moon that is happening on the 19th?

Doubtful, but I expect a lot of people will catch teh ghey from it.

Here’s a model of the energy propagation through the Pacific:

I was at the Gym last night and they keept having the video of the Tsunami engulfing everything on repeat, needless to say my workout last longer then expected lol. I mean you just can’t peel your eyes away from it, this is nature at its craziest.

chusin and Cortez… are you guys OK??

I’m watching some of the vids, and looking at the pics. It is insane, I wish I could be there physically to help. It almost looks like a movie/end of the world or something. this kind of motivates me to get on to some federal agency search and rescue team. but I dream…[/quote]

Cortez is good, no need to worry about him.

Chusin I’m not sure about though.

Seriously, what the hell is with the Facebook profiles telling me to “remember Pearl Harbor” and how Japan is a victim of “karma”. What the fuck?

Christ, there sure are a lot of idiots around.

I mean, really?

Should we bring Hiroshima and Nagasaki into this? Probably an even lower form of low.

Absolutely. Ignorance is bliss.

Hell, the AFTERSHOCKS are 5+ magnitude! The aftershocks are bigger than the Haiti earthquake!

I’m not sure which earthquake you’re referring to, but the 2010 Haiti earthquake was 7.0 magnitude.
Still, the main event was insane. Sucks to live on a subduction zone.
One of my buddy’s brothers teaches in Japan, and was telling us that he was feeling foreshocks all week leading up to it. It’s a damn shame we can’t predict these things better. Especially these massive “blue moon” events.

Most of the ‘big’ aftershocks are 5+. About a dozen or so in the 6+. There was a 7.1 aftershock recorded.

That’s not even the worst I’ve heard. There was some moron
suggesting that Japan deserved what they got because they kill
whales. Ya know, some people really have an F’d up sense of
perspective and really need to turn the damn TV off once in a while.

Corresponded with Chushin via PM. He’s fine.

I hope the World can get together and lend a hand. There is only ONE race in the world and that is the human race.
