So that's both Kaz and Kei okay? That's great news. My tsunami is due in a few hours but I doubt it will even be close to a meter thank goodness (in fact I suspect people will be at the beaches this morning waiting for it)

the Tsunami 2004 killed people in Somalia and Yemen 100 miles away from the epicenter, so the distance a tsunami travels have not to much effect it is what the ocean is like, is it deep, or shallow water, alot of obstruensy in the water, the wave gets smaller,

I am sure the warnings are only pre-cautionary. You are much closer but they are expecting tides (on top of the norm of course) of a meter in Hawaii and up to 20 inches on the US West Coast. Not drastic but amazing to see how far reaching these things can be.

I apologise Snow Dog, I wasn't accusing you of anything and it was kind of stupid on my part to bring it up. Sorry everyone.

Its great to hear from Keishiro Maki!

Its on most stations now..... The people are rushing the stores for water and some are just looking very shocked.

Tsunami warnings here!

Now I am worried.

The live pictures are showing fires on Tokyo oil refinery in close proximity to the city.

My Prayers go out to the victims.

Indeed, and let's hope it stops right here!

There are always threats of aftershocks, landslides, and I see there are tsunami warnings posted for Australia, NZ, Mexico and Hawaii. Precautionary and I hope it stays that way and Japan can escape with as little damage as possible.

Thank god theres always room for an argument...

The videos are unreal. Saw some live video...absolutely unreal. What magnitude...what destruction.

Absolutely hope all PA friends from Japan and any other effected area are ok and that Japan can recover from this quickly.

Dig me...But don't...Bury me
I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive

...With that little defensive bout out of the way Ermm

8.9 is an amazingly powerful quake!
Hope all our Japanese friends are alright, as well the rest of the country. Hopefully the damage is not too catastrophic given the strength of that quake.

Amazing pictures of the Tsunami on the news. Awesome.

Awesome as in powerful, not "very good", right?

Why are you cross examining me?

Awesome can have different meanings.

And you were worried that I was glad a lot of Japanese people had died. That I revelled in the destruction and pain.

No.
