The elders told us that if the water recedes fast it will reappear in the same quantity in which it disappearedThat's a big duh and I have no knowlege of the ocean. I thought the first time someone being interviewed about the water receding that that was a huge indication that something was sucking it out and it would come back 10 fold and you'd better get outta there quick. I still can't understand why the native born, of all people, wandered out into the waters.

In 64 I knew to get my but down to the harbor (L.A) and run the boat out to sea when I got word of the Alaska quake.
The boat slips with their boats that the owners didn't have the sense to get them out got wasted.
Luckily Long Beach Marina was almost finished and I was able to get a slip there when it subsided, mine in L.A. was no longer in existence.

Interesting. The Morgan Sea Gypsies would make a nice name for a lounge band.

Why didn't the sea gypsies share this knowledge? They could have saved a lot of lives.

I was hit by a surge wave during a small hurricane, called hurricane Juan. I was far from the edge of the water sun bathing when someone screamed just in time for me to raise up on my elbows and look left.
That surge wave hit me like a hammer and rolled me down the beach like a dead flounder and that was just a tiny surge wave. I can't imagine the power that was behind the wave that hit those unfortunate people, it had to have been like getting hit by a cement wall.

It's called, "learning from history". A subject not really taught in schools any more.

It's not what you know, but how you feel about yourself. [/sarcasm]

There is a story on Fox about a young 8 year ol girl named Tilly who was on the family on the beach with her family on vacation. She saw the waters receding and told her parents that they had to run, that there was a tsunami coming. This was on Phi Phi island, and the parents told everyone to run. The beach was empty when the wave hit.
