Re: Japan Earthquake
Just watching the news.
Terrible.
The world having so many cameras really brings home the horror.

Re: Japan Earthquake
They are calling it a mega earthquake on the news its that big and causing that much damage.
Tsunami is bigger than some of the islands its going to hit, it looks aggressive on the news.

Re: Japan Earthquake
It is like watching one of those horror movies(you watch, but you really don't want to see what you are seeing)...except, it is real and has terrible implications for all the islands on the Pacific Rim.
I feel for the people whose lives have been affected by these tragic happenings.

Re: Japan Earthquake
There is a likely link between solar flares and earth crust activity
http://www.khalilov.biz/pdf/About%20...vities%203.pdf
During the night of 10th/11th there was an M class solar flare (see thumbnail)
The current solar cycle will peak next year.
We can expect more earthquakes and volcanic eruptions.
A way to be forewarned is to monitor the sun.
Current Solar Data: NOAA data

Re: Japan Earthquake
It does make you think though, this planet is obviously not happy with the human race pushing it to past its capabilities. Its very sad

Re: Japan Earthquake
That is interesting Margaret.
My daughters little boy(7, but going on 27) was asking me this morning(after watching the news footage) if the earthquakes had anything to do with solar flares......I told him truthfully, that I didn't know....now, when he gets home from school I can tell him.

CO2 emissions are a minor factor in the cause of earth changes.

Re: Japan Earthquake
Just when you think it can't get any worse, the Fukushima nuclear plant is having problems. If the emergency cooling system can't cope ......

Re: Japan Earthquake
Its only when you see things like this happening around the world that it makes you think how lucky we are in this country, the only thing we have to bother about is our bad winter weather
