Just heard from Koji. He's okay. It's looking like a lot of the water damage will be up north and along the coast line.

If rushing water hits the oil fire in Chiba, that's gonna be really bad news.

The Tokyo area is still shaking pretty good. Like right now we are having some big aftershocks. We are in Tsunami warnings, but I'm hoping we are far enough South of the epicenter to be clear.

I wish everyone well over here and thank you all for checking in :!:

Ok, I really hope this is not pushing it too far on my part, but this video was uploaded to Youtube on the 8th: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95zMdTvoqcQ
Starts out by saying if you live anywhere near a fault zone in between March 11th & 25th, go on a vacation. She goes kinda Jesus-freaky towards the end tho.

Again, I hope nobody finds this insulting in light of the scores of victims likely, but it just freaked me out a bit. I usually have my fun with conspiracies and doomsday scenarios, but wow..

I'll delete it if it's deemed that far outa line and my apologies in advance.

Outrageous quake. Biggest I've felt since the Loma Prieta quake. People were freaked out and standing in the street. Many serious aftershocks. Trains all stopped. Had to walk home. Still not all the way there yet.
