They're thinking 20,000 people were washed out to sea and those numbers aren't even added to the 40,000 they already have counted....:eek2:

It'll probably reach 100,000 before it's all said and done. Dead bodies everywere rotting, no fresh water, no food, major diseases from the rotting bodies in the air and water. It's a major tragedy that is only going to get worse...:(

They said the quake was so bad that it made the earth wobble on it's axis and completly changed the geographical map of certain countries..:eek2: Now that's some crazy chit..:ermm:

yea.all the dead bodies are now decaying in their water stream. most people arent found. dead bodies decay. there may not be that much food anymore. the water is non-drinkable either

A decaying body produces more disease than anything else in the world, is what a DR. said on the news tonight.

Imagine what it must look like for a 30 foot wall of water to be moving at you at 500 miles an hour. I mean think about it, thats not THAT far from the speed of sound, thats crazy :ermm:

Its very sad

Its actually hard to fathom, I mean it seems so damn big of a disaster but weird in the sence that none of us felt anything or have had any effects here at home...other than sadness and sorrow:(

The only things that could hurt us here is a volcano, asteroid(:D ) or earthquake in the area that I live in, so in a way its not easy to comphrehend, We're supposed to get "the big 1" here sometime soon, seems to me it could easily be as bad or possibly worse than the Cali quake of the 90's:confused:
