Japan Earthquake

[ScreaminFloyd]

Very Sad day in Japan. Hiro, I hope all is well with you.

Whether it's a natural earth cycle we're going through, a brown dwarf star entering our galaxy creating magnetic anomalies, or it's us contributing to the warming of the planet, either way:



Isostasy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia



Geophysicist Allen Glazner of the University of North Carolina recently commented that “It’s unavoidable that glacial retreat will induce tectonic activity. He goes on to say, “Recent findings reinforce the idea that the solid earth and the climate are inextricably linked.” As glaciers melt, it upsets the balance in the Earth’s crust and mantle; because weight shifts from the land where the glaciers were, down into the oceans as the melted ice runs off. As a result, there is less weight on the land, and more weight in the oceans. This will create what geologists call an “isostatic rebound”.



Why are fish dying by the millions in our waters and thousands of birds dropping from our sky's all over the globe recently...this could be result from the HAARP, the catastrophic gulf oil spill last year...it is concerning whether it's these aforementioned issues or something else? Just a valid concern:

I am not going to go into theories of why things are happening, but watcing the news all day this is a disaster of extraordinary magnitude. I have never seen cars and trucks by the hundreds being pushed and washed away like they were Match Box toy vehicles. My heart and prayers go out but I think the loss of life is going to be devastating.

same here straycat.... it's really sad to see this happening.

 

[Pilours]

Just hoped it was a bad movie trailer when I discovered that on TV... All our thoughts go to our japanese friends

 

[threeminutesboy]

I have called and reach most of my friends there, they were all safe but i know a lot of people disappeared

Sad news

 

[Headstock]

Sad day indeed, likely many to follow. Hope Hiro and others are safe.

 

[Spudmurphy]

+1 my heart goes out to the people of Japan.

Had family experience the New Zealand quake the other week and they were VERY lucky. 2 minutes earlier the building they were in collapsed!!

 

[Dante]

the quake/tsunami were terrible, but i'm much more concerned with what's happening at the nuclear power plants.

 

[browndog]

Just terrible. I wish I could actually go there and help in some way.

There was another 6.4 aftershock just a half hour ago near the damaged Nuclear plant. That has me worried as well.

 

[fbecir]

Very sad news, but I still don't understand how people can build nuclear plants in region where there is a very high seismic risk.

History shows again and again how nature points up the folly of man

So sad to hear. I hope they get all the help in the world over there to get thing cleaned up.

That day was a sad day indeed. I watched all live-feeds pretty much all day long.
I still haven't reached my friend who had moved there to study. Worried like hell

Praying for your friend- i've heard that there's still a large portion that doesn't have cell coverage or land lines... dont give up hope.

Can we just make sure that every japanese forumite or those who live there are safe?

I imagine the least thing they now are able is login to this site but ....oh man

 

[HiroD]

It is Hilo, Japan!
I thank all of you & Mr.ScreaminFloyd
Four days passed since a major earthquake.
Tokyo where I lived in shook very hard.
My and my family is safe.
My guitars are safe, too!
But the disaster area catches the serious damage.
Everybody does best!
The revival of the town will take time.
We do not lose
I thank for support and the love of you beyond the border.
DOMO ARIGATO!!

My True Gold iPod haha...

 

[mikeller]

Yeah - this is awful and my heart and prayers go out to all affected as well

GAMBATTE, Hiro! (is that correct?)
Hope your beautiful country recover soon from this tragedy

See ya
