Japan quake and tsunami

Post by Alan_L »

The disaster in Japan has a thousand different faces, but this video that shows the tsumani washing over row-covered crops and poly tunnels really hit home. Not only does it show the destructive power, but the speed at which the wave is moving.

I read somewhere today that the main island of Japan (Honshu) moved 8 feet or 2.4 meters to the east..... Thats insane.. I offer my deepest sympathies to all involved.
