I rather prefer this one.

Not a DO-DO tsunami!

Hip boots are going to sell out fast. :D

This from the USGS.

The seabed near the epicentre of the massive earthquake that rocked Japan last month was shifted 24 metres by the tremor, the country's coastguard said.

Sensors found that one part of the ocean floor had been stretched to a point 24 metres east-southeast of its position before the 9.0-magnitude undersea quake, which triggered a massive tsunami that engulfed large areas of Japan's north-east coast.

The undersea movement is more than four times bigger than any observed on land, where part of the Oshika peninsula in Miyagi prefecture was found to have shifted 5.3 metres.

The US Geological Survey (USGS) said in March that the force of the quake moved Honshu - Japan's main island - by 2.4 metres.

7.1 "aftershock" i heard
man, japan is gonna be messed up for a few generations, eh? what a shame

Is it going to stop for those people? :wish:

Yesterday marked one month after a record making quake started the recent session of activity. The continuing after-shocks have been of the magnitude that constitutes major quakes elsewhere, taking many lives and bringing down large portions of towns and cities. During the night I got an alert of another 7.1 in Onoyasashi and just now for a magnitude 6.4 in Ichinomiya. The good news is we are witness to and learning from some extraordinary events. The bad news is those poor people are participants in these events. The good does not out-weigh the bad. :(

And the Fukushima nuclear disaster is now a scale 7: as bad as Chernobyl.

Taking into account the "way down the track" consequences.

Another 7+ this morning off Japan.
