MY Father just told me that the waves tore up a port in Oregon. I cannot find anything confirming this but he saw it on the news.

One of the outer bldgs has collapsed at the #1 site and just a few minutes ago there was a 6+ rated aftershock in Fukushima provice. They have ordered evacuation for a 12mile radius.

Images and videos still are unfathomable.

Re: Massive quake hits Japan; Tsunami in Pacific, nations on alert

Reactor 1 has had an explosion, and the Japan govt is saying for the first time that a meltdown is most likely occuring. Also, there is a second reactor that an explosion is apparantly imminent. The 1st reactor is confirmed to be leaking cesium-137, a very volatile element with a long half-life, among other things.

Very bad here. Maybe not a chernobyl but the damage, and the consequences very well may rival it.

THIS is......Horrific

Tide of 1,000 bodies overwhelms quake-hit Japan - Toshiba

And now they are in they're fourth day without power and water. HELL it could be months before they have power? IF they don't have a meltdown in any of the reactors. HOw long does it take to clean up a disaster like this and get a Nuke back online???
HOLY......Hell.
