Well I believe it. Think about it- we saw people standing and watching the Ocean receding "hundreds" of yards- without a shred of a reaction. People allowed their children to play in murky water and mud were the ocean had been.

The thought of the Ocean disappearing makes the short hairs on the back of my neck stand up.

We saw people standing and watching huge waves approaching as if it were just another day, while they stood there WITH THEIR CHIDLREN and were sightseeing. Primal instinct is to get your children out of harm's way- and it can kick in with the change of the wind- or an odd sound.

IT is as if some of these people had no primal instinct to get out of the way or to question what was going on with their surroundings.

It struck me that some of these people were caught off guard because the government hadn't issued a warning....Some of these folks seem to have forgotten that sometimes you need to figure these things out for yourself and get in tune with your instincts so you know when danger is approaching.

BTW-I am not blaming the victims but I think many of them have been lulled into a false security.

Technology is great and no way do I want to live in a tribal setting in a remote area- but humans are animals after all.... We do have instincts similar to our furry friends- and apparently those instincts have been erased in some people.
