Here's hoping it's not too destructive.

EDIT: Looks like it ended up being smaller than expected. No injuries reported.

I hate that tsunami hype. For decades nobody paid any attention to tsunamies and earthquakes that cause them. Now everytime there is a quake the whole media gets crazy just because there was one big tsunami accident wich isnt likely to happen very often.

Ofcourse its a good thing nobody got hurt.

This is actually quite a serious problem. When media go crazy on every tsunami warnings and nothing happens, people will become less serious about them. And then one day a big tsunami will hit when people ignore the warnings.

tusnamis only kill people who live in their path....which isn't me. no accounting for choices people make...but the responsibility lies with them and their forebears....stay out of my wallet.
