I'm just stunned by the images I'm seeing. My heart goes out to the Japanese people.

Same here. It's such a scary thing that really makes you feel 'small' in the world.

It is very tragic and stunning, as if you were never aware until this moment that something of that scope could occur. A sick irony that Japan could handle the earthquake yet it was the tidal waves that did the majority of the damage.

I was reading about how the improved warning alarm system allowed tsunami alerts to be sent around the Pacific Ring quicker than they were back in '04 during the Phillipine tsunami. Awareness breeds hope.

I have a friend from Jr High that lives over there now, and he says it's unbelievable.

Thankfully, he is not in the immediate danger area.

Not to lessen the tragedy by any means at all in any way, shape or form, but it does make you wonder about rick people that insist on turning the beaches into private exlusive resorts for themselves in some places, like around Myrtle Beach. Hurricanes, Tsunami's... all that money for something that can be gone in no time, and for what, to not have that family from 300 miles away not be able to enjoy the water so you can feel better about yourself?

I know it has nothing to do with the real damage and lives lost in Japan. But where I live, the ocean isn't really that far away and the changes over the last forty years have just about turned me off the beach.
