i dont think the little shift in the surface will effect the earth in any way. the planet was slightly knocked off its axis but not enough to make any differance. the earth now spins 3 milliseconds faster is what they said.

btw the surface shirts and changes everytime there is an earthquake or a volcano so thats no biggie.

I have one best buddy in Thailand, another in Indonesia. Both checked in yesterday, thank gawd. But I feel sorry for my Thai buddy, as he's missing friends he grew up with and stuff...

In Australia its nothing but that on the news. Its like when 9/11 happend at home. Nothin but tsunami on tv. its so crazy to watch it. and im currently on a beach with 1-2 foot waves and the past couple days they built up to 7-12 foot waves from the rebound or something. I tried to surf them but since I'm very new to he sport, i got my asses kicked. RIP to the 1000' of people and i hope everyone gets back on track.

There are also locations at almost all the Large Stores here in London they are asking people to donate at the Checkout of Walmart as well as TD canada trust banks. So give it if you got it, all it takes is even 50cents if thats all you have.

To bad there wasn't a bigger view but on the Cnn.com site they have a small picures of the waves from Tsunami from the view it doesn't look at that bad.. but then again it could be beginning or the end of Tsuanmi the "calm" of the rath.

Found couple links showing some images/videos not sure how well the videos work I couldn't check them out since I am working. The Last 3 videos seem to be the best of them.

http://www.nbc10.com/slideshow/40268...?qs=;s=1;w=320

This link shows how the Tsunami started and how fast it gets moving.. it's pretty incase upto 800km/hour and when it reached shallow water as high as 10meters...
