Possible tsunami

Don't know if anyone knows this but it'll be we wise to tell loved ones in the east coast to stay away from beaches from a possible tsunami.

seems the life guards had there hands full with fools not wanting to leave the beach or going back in and then later saying " see nothing..." " you got it wrong, why should we listen!!" etc..
Well Aussies tend to learn the hard way and the day will come when a big one does roll in and many will die
AND THEN they will blame everyone else for their suffering.

Sad how arrogant and " you won't tell us what to do " we are in this nation!
Hawaii went on full alart and when a small wave did roll in they where all very relieved that they dodged the bullet, then again they have learnt the hard way with many dead before when waves have rolled in.

This was a 8.8 mag quake in the same area that produced a massive 9.2+ in the past, the most destructive quake ever! so the region has a history of massive quakes and tsunami's from it

last alert said that a wave could take anything from 10hours to 16hours to reach us after the quake, so it's not cut and dry science in predicting the results.

Just got back from over there, woke up to a the Sunday Telegraph outside my hotel room door with TSUNAMI ALERT on. Don't think anything happened.
