If there's any place that's ready for quakes and tsunamis, it's Tokyo, Japan.

+rep for the home country.

I feel for the smaller coastal areas in the NE that got smashed though.

Massive earthquake hits Japan

I just saw on the news about the 8.5 quake that hit near Tokyo. A huge tsunami has followed. I just wanted to make everyone aware of this!

My heart goes out to everyone who is affected by the quake. I wish you make it out all right :(

One tsunami might hit New Zealand. My cousins,uncles etc. live there. Hope they don't get wiped out.
