Re: 22000 Dead.

The earths rotation was affected very little by the wave. It's like when you're carrying a big bucket of water, and the water is sloshing around inside of the bucket.

As for the 500mph water... Your insides would be instant mush. They say hitting water flat on is like hitting concrete for a good distance at a good speed when falling, I can't imagine...

At least for a good portion of the people, the death was quick. With the floods, I sure hope that most of the people didn't drown. I would hate to drown.

I sure hope gov'ts are doing something to prevent this from ever happening again.
