I just got an EDIS alert that there was an 8.0 quake near Hokkaido, Japan. Tsunami warnings for AK. No news sources yet that I can find...

Much appreciate your contribution on this thread and otherwise.

Always surprised me that they had cut that scene. For those who don't know, a deep ocean civilization created these mountainous waves and then froze them at their crest to show their power. Then they dissolved the waves.

ONE DOES WONDER

When the masses are going to wake up and realize

Todo, we are NOT in Kansas any more.

At least, not the Kansas anyone remembers.

There are reports of superwaves in the open sea, but not necessarily related to earthquakes.

Short of undersea landslides

or

waves getting into a kind of multiplying-effect-sync

[for lack of a better layman's way of putting it]

WHAT OTHER causes are there?
