Japan Quake and tsunami
I just spent several hours watching the coverage of the earthquake and tsunami in Japan (tsunami is now heading for the rest of the Pacific Rim)
Feels like I just watched September 11th all over again. Watching dozens of cars getting washed thru what looked like farmland in Japan. Waves making a river run backwards.
I feel sick. After the quake and tsunami in Indonesia several years ago, I never thought I'd see that kind of video again. Only good thing about tonight's tsunami video. It was filmed far enough away that I could NOT see if there were any people in the water...Except for when you saw a car that was driving really fast trying to get away from the wave, and seeing the wave overtake it.
Too scary.
I need to sleep now. Hope I can.
