Please see 38, and don’t be hysterical. Comparing the 360* spread of a single point event in the open ocean to the channelized and focused energy in a BAY in Alaska is just plain foolish.

Now, if you could first build a giant “Grand Canyon” across the Atlantic, keeping all of the wave energy in that channel and aimed at Florida, then I’d agree we have a problem.

But I don’t see a “Grand Canyon” being created with walls higher than the surface of the Atlantic anytime soon.

Folks: Energy dissipates rapidly when it spreads out over 360* and thousands of miles! See 39 for a few basic numbers.

Despite your numbers, many in the geological community quite concur, so I've been led to believe. Energy dissipates from the focal point - with is aimed at the US. The effects will be less the further north and south the wave travels. A wave that big with that much energy, will be focused by the continents themselves acting as “canyons”.
