Happenings in Japan

Wasn't sure what to do with this, but here you go.

First person video of the tsunami in Japan.  I'm amazed at how it went from a small bit of water to a freaking river in less than a minute.

Before and after pics of the earthquake.

I happened to notice your link was broken, so I fixed it. Try this next time - [*url=*urlgoeshere*]text goes here[*/url] minus the *'s and the text...

But the video isn't popping up. Stupid school blocks...



Anyways, yeah, this was horrible. Scared the living crap out of me on Friday (as evident from my posts on the thread on GSR). We finally got some contact from Yoshi so I'm happy as can be - she lives in Hiroshima so she was 95% sure to be okay, but she travels a lot, so that worried me... nice to see that 5% doubt gone. Really. Not to say that I don't still feel really bad about the disaster but when you know someone that's really close to your family and they're okay and you can contact them that makes you feel so much better.
