    Awe-inspiring.


    I can't see anything. Am I supposed to see something moving?


    I agree with you Thor but it's certainly awe inspiring none the less whether you can see anything tsunami or not.

  7. According to a quick report on FOX News, with guest Michio Kaku, the earthquake in Chilli was so powerful, it moved the Earth's axis. I recall hearing the tsunami back in 2004(?) did the same thing.

    Anyway, the numbers of scientific interest:

    The Earth has moved 3 inches off
    Result: everyday is now 1.26 micro seconds shorter

    I read it too. Yeah, i felt the lack of those microseconds yesterday at sunset, but i wasn't too sure and i waited for a scientific announcement before i said anything.

    Yeah, for some reason you always include a time tag! (In this case 34.768, which means it starts ~35 seconds into the film). confused

  16. Okay, Googlged it: the tsunami shortened the day by three micro seconds. So now we're over 4 microseconds lost every day.

    Amazing!

    Such wonderful and bizarre fish! Since I have some big, currently uninhabited aquariums, I think I'll look up how one can keep them.

    That's really freaky. (Although I do appreciate it from a scientific point of view.)

    I wonder if she's named them all yet?
