Just go to any news site, you'll see. I remember a 7.2 and 6.5 just hit Japan a couple of days ago. And a tsunami is heading to the US coast right now.

For anyone who cares, you can donate any amount of your choosing to the redcross via amazon.com. Was incredibly easy to use the way they set it up.

He worried about residents who had moved to appointed evacuation zones, common throughout Japan, right after the first tsunami alert, before later calls to move to even higher ground. "The tsunami was too big, it washed out those evacuation centers with the people inside," Kenichi said. "My legs were shaking when I saw the aftermath" of the tsunami, he said, "but we must keep on living. People will return to live here again."

I hear this quake shifted the earth's axis by 8 miles. Any truth? That's pretty major.

the continent of japan was shifted 8 feet. the earth's axis was shifted as well but I don't believe by that much.

He said local authorities were also running out of body bags and coffins.

"We have requested funeral homes across the nation to send us many body bags and coffins. But we simply don't have enough. We just did not expect such a thing to happen. It's just overwhelming."

Sato said local authorities may ask foreign funeral homes to send supplies.


Nightmare.

lol Whisp.

I have a friend who lives in Tokyo. She left the country today, and is now in barcelona. Her and her family were afraid of the radiation leak so they left. I'm such a paranoid freak if the nuclear plant closest to my house was leaking radiation I would bail.

Radiation is scary stuff. its gonna be like akira up in there soon. Its scary to think about what kinda of impact that stuff will cause in the future. it wont be like chernuble(sp) thou, but yeah I would leave the island for a while.

Radiation over there is nothing as bad than Chernobyl, Why because of Rad are very low pass 10km from where plant is. Rad levels are about 0.4 to 35. highest I seen yet. if you took your normal chess X-ray your getting about 50. rad and highest rad is CAT scan is about 150 (I think). Japan is safe and level are very very low and you just need to wash yourself with soap and water and discard the items and clothing.

Japan had built those place to make it safer than Chernobly.

As for Chernobly was a human error that they didn't build a strong overhead protection and worse they had no experience doing this shit. Worse thing they did is open rod up then closed it then immediately open the rod too fast not letting them cool down long enough that cuase them to boil too fast also they opened them wide open that rod went too far out and got stuck that they couldn't close it that made that rod go into meltdown which it blew up rad all over the place badly.

Really glad my friend lives around Kyoto. He didn't realize anything was happening until he turned on the news.

I wonder what people were saying in game when this happened. There must have been people in Japan playing FFXIV when the quake went off.
