I just recently found this site that shows the true horror of the tragedy. Here is the link, it shows the before and after affects, 16 of them in all.

Good post, Racthoh. That was floating around work the other day, and I was amazed by the pictures...
http://smh.com.au/news/Asia-Tsunami/NASA-m...s&oneclick=true This article confirms the suspicion that scientists had about the tsunamis. They did indeed travel around 500mph on the way to landfall. *shudders* -------------------- Join the Army, see the world, meet interesting people - and kill them. ~Pacifist Badge, 1978 |

500 mph... just horrifying...
I saw some other pictures but my friend hasn't sent them to me yet. It showed some of the waves just before they hit... massive in size.  -------------------- This is my world: (Got my second chapter up, 3rd Chapter about 80% complete) http://www3.sympatico.ca/daniel876/homepage.html |

I'm kind of proud Jersey officially donated £850,000, especially given that we have a population of 85,000.
There has also been several thousand pounds raised by individual events. But I agree. There's no words for it, other than horrifying and tragic. |
