True but America took the lead AGAIN in aiding them.

I just hope it means more sun for us
I was half kidding. Sometimes my three years of earth science courses make me dangerous in a geological discussion!
But, the concept of a true pole shift and the impact it would have had on civilization answers a lot of historical questions. For example, we find archeological evidence of civilizations that were all wiped out around the same time. Yet the history of man can be found way beyond the past 5,000.
The biblical stories and ancient myths point to massive floods and other events that could be tied back to a massive shift.
The magnetic shift DOES occur every 10,000 years or so. It is right there in the sea floor of the atlantic—the magnetic pictures of the rocks look like zebra stripes—one set with the pole north, then another set with the pole south.
I take the magnetic shift as a “given.”
Sometimes a little education is just enough to scare the bejeezus out of you.
How funny.. yesterday at he gym this wild eyed liberal said to me "I can see all the right wingers screaming that this is Obama's fault"..so I replied ,"naw we all know it was really Bushes fault don't we?" ... he just walked away
No kidding. I bet they are already outside their homes, sweeping the streets where they can.
In our cities we would still be in the local grammar school gym crying about how this government should have told us this would happen.
Of course, having your country bombed into oblivion a generation or two ago might have something to do with it.
My wife was pointing out that a lot of the buildings were built with better earth quake survival in mind. When I asked why she did not see buildings more than 50-60 years old she paused for a second and said she did not know. I told her it was because her uncle flew in B29’s and dropped fire bombs all over them.
Makes urban renewal a little easier.
A little less than an hour later, the major drawback of water occurred along the coastline, and 1 hour and 15 minutes after the quake, television cameras captured the massive waves that wiped out entire regions.
So: From feeling quake (end of initial rupture): 1:15 From drawback of ocean water prior to tsunami: 20 minutes. Tsunamis come in multiple waves, each one building across the previous one, the entire event took well over an hour. During live coverage, I watched people in cars out driving the waves, and alas, some who were driving parallel to the face of the waves and debris who failed to get out of the way.
LOL think of GPS assisted skiing ... gonna hit every lift line pole heading down the mountain.
Yeah, doesn’t moving the axis change our entire orbit around the sun via the butterfly effect?
I’m thinking it means the position shift of an axis as would be measured at the surface of an ideal sphere just enclosing the earth and following its orbit.
As they used to say in the old Soviet Union, you can ascertain a certain amount of truth from the news. You can know that whatever the truth is, it is NOT what the media is reporting.
Actually a 7 foot move might be fun. Wake up in the morning and you’ve got new next-door neighbors.
With the sea level suddenly falling outside the marina, you’d certainly get a pronounced “drain.”
Ants. That’s all I got to say about that.
I ‘spect that’s why they’re so interested. They know very well that the big one is coming some day, which makes it an interesting case because it isn’t really earthquake country - they get little jiggles once in a while, but nothing like Kullyfoh-nee-ya.
Very intersting graphic and text. Thanks for posting.
Thank you. I just watched this in complete horror. http://cnn.com/video/?/video/world/2011/03/11/nat.nhk.japan.sendai.tsunami.nhk
Yes it did but not as much. This earthquake was much stronger.
Areial view of coastline shift...before and after quake and Tusammi. http://live.reuters.com/Event/Japan_earthquake2
I was wondering how the sun spot activity could be a contributing factor. As sun spots can disrupt electronics, etc. could this activity also disrupt the earth’s magnetic field?
