I was very sad to hear the story about the earthquake and tsunami hitting Japan this morning. The devastation caused is on a colossal scale and the loss of life is very saddening.

Absolutely frightening! The pictures of the wave chasing down cars being driven along the road

To be fair they have had this sort of things for years and should be used to it, Tsunami is a Japanese word meaning "big wave" irrc. Remember the famous picture By Hokusai "In the well of the great wave of Kanagawa" I have it on my wall!
