I was touched to see the dreadful tsunami hitting Japan, such an immense tsunami... Just wish to make sure everyone is OK in case there is any Japanese here or if you have any relatives or friends living there. God bless!

Nahh relax, this world still has several million years ahead, and most important, the world won't end if the human race die out, in fact it would be a better place for animals :).

Are you aware of everything that has withstood the world? We are talking about comets, meteors, earthquakes, global fire, ice ages, tornadoes, rays; and you think 200 years of pollution (since the industrial revolution) are gonna make a difference?
Don't be scared.

I feel sad for them, I hope they'll get better...
Anyway, these disasters make me think the world is really going towards an end...

I do not think so.
Such a tragedy is not related to any human act. Such event (earthquake/tsunami) happened many times in the past, and will continue to happen in the next million years.
What really calls my attention is the efficiency of the Japanese people to react to such trouble and prejudice.
In the beginning of the year, here in Brazil, we faced the (expected) annual rain flood and land slips... which is 1000 times more predictable than any earthquake/tsunami, produces 1000 times less destruction, but the amount of deaths in Brazil looks like to be the same (or more than) in this Japan incident.
In the same time, the Australian people had ten times more prejudice with flood, but they had a hundred times less deaths.

Maybe the solution is to declare war to the USA... and then surrender asap. :P

With the Germany, China, and Russia alone it would be enough against the US. It would probably end anyways with someone abusing some nuclear weapons, thus most probably with us killing ourselves and our Earth. Though I think you misunderstood Brahma so let's go back on topic...

Has anyone else seen the facebook/twitter posts calling the tsunami "payback for pearl harbor"? I would like to be the first to say that these people are morons, and should not be allowed to reproduce. First of all, the atomic bombs were more than enough payback, and second, you shouldnt even think about it that way. I hope everyone understands that my jokes (esp the US vs AUS thread) were all in good fun, and i would not wish harm on anyone. well, except those ignorant people i previously mentioned.

I won't be losing any sleep over this disaster. GO INLAND. Not to hard to figure out. I just hope their damn nuclear reactors don't pollute the ocean. The worlds water has already had enough abuse from British Petroleum. But I guess we could use a little more. I wonder why the sea life is dying....hmm....I can't figure it out. Must be the air pollution.
edit: Sorry in advance if I upset you, just my opinion

vern... sorry for saying this, but your opinion express your ignorance.
You should not blame the japonese people for a natural disaster or the place they live.
Maybe you blamed the New Orleans people for the Katrina too...
Also, what crazy idea... move thousands of people to inland?! What land? Where? Do you think it is so simple? Stop saying senseless stuff and respect their losses.
