WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A massive magnitude 8.0 earthquake on Tuesday off the coast of Chile, near the mining port of Iquique, sparked a tsunami warning for all of Latin America's Pacific coast, the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said.

"An earthquake of this size has the potential to generate a destructive tsunami that can strike coastlines near the epicenter within minutes and more distant coastlines within hours," it said.

That’s pretty good. You posted to yourself telling yourself to read your earlier post.

[UCANSEE2]

[UCANSEE2]

It’s OK to talk to yourself. It’s even OK to answer.

As long as you don’t say, “what?”

[UCANSEE2]

Yeah, and you still responded to it..

Well, I'm just tired of you getting all the attention.

[dragnet2]

You’re thinking of asteroids, which are much larger as a general rule than meteors....

[dragnet2]

In any event, I can’t imagine being near the epicenter of a 8.++

That would rock one’s world bad...

I've made a few trips to have dinner in Gardiner (out the north side of the park). Had some huge herds of antelope along the road between Mammoth and Gardiner.
