The tsunami warning system is apparently nonexistent in these countries. What's flawed is the mental function of all the educated tourists who figured it made sense to put on their bikinis and go play on the beach, at the edge of the ocean which just hosted one of the largest earthquakes in a century!

I'd say none of them were aware there had been one of the largest quakes of the century under the Indian Ocean.

When you go to the beach do you sit there with a laptop constantly refreshing the USGS NEIC website?
