The thing is with the after shocks is that they are so far under ground they are not noticable on the surface.

Lol your a tool

Where do you even begin to clean that up.

Yes , Although mecury is so hot it's plates fusesed together if I remember correctly from the old discovery documented

Gonna need a bigger hoover...

I'd clear all the roads and train lines first, to get the country up and running again.

Damn it, If I knew a decent language I would totally write up a tool to grab all the names that listed pearl harbour and then post them on a site for all to easily see.

Quite funny to watch people mouth off about the Japanese people deserving this, only for their comments to get lots of attention that they didn't plan!

Here's one: http://twitter.com/#!/melopotamus. She said

"Wasn't Japan over populated anyway? Hey Japan, remember Pearl Harbour? #WeDidntForget"

And now I think people are bombarding her with comments.

Can you some of you silly people just stop trolling this thread with this nonsense about doomsday and the like.

We have an enormous disaster on our hands and this is not the time or place for this rubbish.

Facing the very real possibility of a doomsday situation and discussing it in GD is not trolling sorry. Those texts in place describing earthquakes are very relevant.
I see your sig; to live the dream, you have to wake up one day.

The people making the Pearl Harbour comments probably think that happened when the film came out in 2001. They're clueless pre-programmed morons who seek constant attention, so why give it to them?

As for those saying "this is why I hate Americans" you're just as daft. A couple of Internet trolls don't represent a vast country of 300,000,000+ people

It's trolling because it's retarded, there is no "very real possibility of a doomsday scenario". If you want to talk about that kind of garbage, make another thread so we can more easily ignore it.

I've just been watching some of the videos showing some aftershocks hitting cities and how the buildings just wobble to compensate, really incredibly engineering.

"I kid. What happened in Japan was a terrible thing. Innocent people died. It's human nature to care even if it was S. Korea we'd care."

facepalm

The operator trapped in the crane operating console of the exhaust stack
was transferred to the ground at 5:13PM and confirmed the death at 5:17PM

From that Tepco site

I didn't realise anyone had been killed on site.

All of it really, I consider my shed to be a task to clean out, that's a country sized shed.

Not trying to be insensitive when I say this, but I find it pretty damn funny that Obama has pledged to do whatever the USA can to help clean up, etc. They still haven't finished fixing New Orleans 6 years on from Katrina...

They aren't. It's just rot. If you write anything down thats vaguely possible it's going to happen some day.
