Looks like the whole area is very unstable right now in many ways.



Hope the warnings get to peoplein time to get to higher ground and avoid a high mortality rate.

They reckon too it will reach Hawaii in about 8-9 hours time, and the Christmas Islands too, but what damage it will do there I have no idea.

Same here another sad day for many people. This one was highter on the richter scale than Haiti.

Even Australia is on alert and theyve evacuated the Easter Island - how horrific for all those poor, poor people.....

A yahoo article on the Tsunami.

The projected wave to hit Hawaii....is said to be the largest to hit the Islands since 1964. They are considering moving tourists from the lower floor of hotels to high floor within.

Most of the Pacific rim countries have gone to a low tsunami threat alert.

I have always been into survival, and am pretty well prepared to survival most anything.
That being said, our country is not. If a quake, happened somewhere, and a tidal wave hit the US and wiped out the East coast, we would be on our own. I do not believe we would receive much, if any help from any country.
I have been called a survivalist nut and other names, but then everyone always says, if anything ever happens, their showing up at my place.
Rule #1. Always have a well thought out plan in place to bug out of the area,, food and water supplies, and needed equipment.
Most people will rely on the government to come and save them, and whine because it doesn't come fast enough.
If our coast was wiped out, with a few million dead, help would be non existent. Our economy might very well collapse, the military might have to be called home to help, martial law declared,, and then TSHTF.
There is a mountain,, can't remember the name, that scientists said could slide off into the ocean if a quake hit that area, And if it did, a wave so large would hit the East coast, and prolly travel inland for a couple hundred miles or more, and wipe out everything in it's path.
The government will not always be there.
Depend on yourselves.

All I said is, you can't always depend on others,, help won't always be there,,
What you said, has nothing to do with what I said.
