as shitty as last night was, it was fucking rad. a bunch of folks gathered at some churches and schools up on a hill, and everybody was sharing whatever they had with whoever was around them.

 

tourists drive a lot of the locals fuckin nuts. a lot of the time, theyre rude, they litter, they dont give a fuck about pronouncing anything correctly, they drive like dicks, and theyre just kinda obnoxious.

 

but it was if all the labels and shit we give to people didnt fuckin exist last night, all the bullshit was out the window. it was cool. there werent any "tourists", "locals", "hippies", "mokes", "yuppies", nothing. there was just a bunch of people that werent positive that they were gonna live, and they wanted to make sure that the people around them were as comfortable as possible.

 

dont get me wrong, it wasnt all fun and games. at around 3am, a tsunami siren went off, and nobody knew if it was going off simply because it had been going off at regular intervals ( it had been going off twice or so an hour), or if it meant that the wave had struck the island.

 

you could see the fear in people, little kids crying all over the place. the siren was fuckin deafening, so you couldnt hear any of the crying, you could only see it, which was fucking creepy.

My bad for not having the patience to read through this whole thread, but are all the 12ozers in Japan accounted for?

I didn't even know Lugr was there, but I'm pretty sure there's a at least a couple other cats who live there I just can't think of the names off the top.

WTF I just seen this. At 2:04 if you look at the bottom right you see

Something in the water traveling. Trying to figure out what it could have been.. It's fuckin weird.

 

^Shadow of a helicopter.

 

Yo that shit looks like it's moving the surface of the water.

Not saying that it's not the shadow of the helicopter, but that shit looks like something big moving through the water really fast.

New quakes rock tsunami-devastated Japan

 

 

SENDAI, Japan – Huge earthquakes rocked northeastern Japan on Saturday, a day after a giant temblor set off a powerful tsunami that killed hundreds of people, turned the coast into a swampy wasteland and left two nuclear reactors dangerously close to meltdown.

 

The United States Geological Survey said a strong earthquake struck just before noon in the sea in virtually the same place where the magnitude 8.9 quake on Friday unleashed one of the greatest disasters Japan has witnessed — a 23-foot (7-meter) tsunami that washed far inland over fields and smashed towns.

 

Saturday's magnitude 6.8 quake was followed by a series of temblors originating from the same area, the USGS said. It was not immediately known whether the new quakes caused any more damage. All were part of the more than 125 aftershocks since Friday's massive quake, the strongest to hit Japan since officials began keeping records in the late 1800s.

 

It ranked as the fifth-largest earthquake in the world since 1900 and was nearly 8,000 times stronger than one that devastated Christchurch, New Zealand, last month, scientists said.

 

The official death toll stood at 413, while 784 people were missing and 1,128 injured. In addition, police said between 200 and 300 bodies were found along the coast in Sendai, the biggest city in the area of the quake's epicenter. An untold number of bodies were also believed to be lying in the rubble and debris. Rescue workers had yet to reach the hardest-hit areas.

 

"The flood came in from behind the store and swept around both sides. Cars were flowing right by," said Wakio Fushima, who owns a convenience store in this northern coastal city of 1.02 million people, 80 miles (125 kilometers) from the quake's epicenter.

 

Smashed cars and small airplanes were jumbled up against buildings near the local airport, several miles (kilometers) from the shore. Felled trees and wooden debris lay everywhere as rescue workers coasted on boats through murky waters around flooded structures, nosing their way through a sea of detritus.

 

"The tsunami was unbelievably fast. Smaller cars were being swept around me and all I could do was sit in my truck," said truck driver Koichi Takairin, 34, who was pinned in his four-ton vehicle and later escaped to a community center.

 

His rig ruined, he joined the steady flow of mud-spattered survivors who walked along the road away from the sea and back into city. Smoke from at least one large fire could be seen in the distance.

 

But basic commodities were at a premium. Hundreds lined up outside of supermarkets, and gas stations were swamped with cars. The situation was similar in scores of other towns and cities along the 1,300-mile-long (2,100-kilometer-long) eastern coastline hit by the tsunami.

Crazy you mention that, because Thursday night I read an article saying how the full moon on March 19th is going to be the closest it's been to earth in 18 years, and that it could bring devastating tsunamis. Eerie shit. The Earth is pissed.

Supermoon = not the culprit

 

 

NASA astronomer Dave Williams agreed.

 

"At the time of the earthquake in Japan, the moon was actually closer to its furthest point in orbit from Earth than it was to its March 19 closest point, so the gravitational effect of the moon was, in fact, less than average at that time,"

the only shit we have is the san andreas fault. SF right in the center of the fault. I think there is a pacific ocean fault right off the coast of washington and down south.

 

Uhh no. There are literally thousands of faults running through California alone. Just saying, some are dormant, or dead entirely while there are more worrisome threats than even the San Andreas- Like the Hayward or Calaveras faultline which is overdue.

 

This shit is in a common highschool geography textbook.
