A natural disater IS natural selection, notice that it happened in one of the most highly populated areas of the world? Humans are growing 'population-wise' too quickly, it's no suprise the world is in apparent economic holes. It doesn't mean the people that died, 'deserved' to, they were just picked at random by nature.

America is gonig to hit a massive recession here in the very near future and for the first time in many years Americans (like me) will learn what the real world is about. Many people here are thin minded and simplistic, and they trust others liek the governemtn to take care of them. Very soon, though, we will have to rely upon ourselves, and I think that people here will begin to think deeply again like we had used to.
I will say that, in my experiance, Americans are unlike anybody else in the world. I'm not going to say that this is a bad thing, but it definitly causes the rest of the world to look at us differently.
I pray that the plants are able to hold up and that people are able to get to safty.
Also, did the Japanese request assistance from the US yet? I know the US had USS Ronald Regan positioned and ready for aid when ever the Japanese governemnt gave them the word. I havn't heard anything since.
Hawaii was spared and was not effected at the last I heard, so I assume that the west coast was as well. I have not heard anything further about this after 9 local time when it was supposed to be hitting the islands.
