All the best to the folks out there. I won't say I'm praying, but I'm really hoping it's all fine.

I just received a call from my Mom (who's living in Zama Japan atm) she said she and her co-workers are fine but the entire country is in a state of emergency. my thoughts are with them, and hopefully that was the worst of it.

I don't want to come off like "Oh it's no big deal" cause an 8.8 is serious goddamn business, but all things considered, it seems so far they've fared pretty well. I haven't seen any reports of fatalities yet, I hope it stays that way when I wake up.

I hope you are right, and that there are no fatalities, but honestly this kind of event, its very probable there will be many

Ok so I was wrong about the moon only *** up my fishing trip, I hope casualties are minimal to none, although as a previous poster said, an event of this magnitude will cause deaths no matter how well prepared the place is. ><

Judging by the pictures and video I have seen already today I would be surprised if fatalaties are not in very large numbers. Whole houses have been washed away by the Tsunami.
