Del Piero: I know Japan quite well and I have different ties that bind me to this country and its people, that have always treated me with great affection. I was really struck by the tragedy happened today, I feel close to Japanese people and to all those who are suffering at this difficult moment.

The world seems as if it is tearing itself apart..

The larger Tsunami "waves" won't be until later. This will be a prolonged event. Reports of the water levels already up in Waikiki.

It's difficult to tell what the magnitude of the tsunami will be when it reaches the West Coast. I can tell you that the 101 in Oregon (west highway) is completely slammed will evacuees.

As long as she isn't walking the beach and doesn't have a beach house right on the coast, she'll be fine.

This isn't going to be a 50 foot Tsunami there.

That's horrible.

RIP.

First hand account of evacs in progress along Cali coast.

We are at the high school evacuation center in Crescent City, CA. I live 2 blocks from the beach and they went door to door to have us all leave. Our house withstood the 64 tsunami, and we thought about staying, but decided to go get coffee and news instead. The sirens went off at 5 and we were dressed and out the door in under 5 minutes to find out that it was supposed to arrive 2 hours later. we went back and grabed some stuff then went back to the shelter.

Wonder what's up in San Fran with Gregger.

 

[Enron]

I wonder if Palin can see the tsunami from her house?

One of my coworker's dad just just got into Sendai I think, but in any case, they have not heard from him and he was right near ground zero...

Shit just got real...
