Talk about a Butterfly Effect.

"Wonder what would happen if a major earthquake coincided with adverse weather, currents and eddies."

"`Eddies,' said Ford, `in the space-time continuum.' `Ah,' nodded Arthur, `is he? Is he?'"

Bummer, I already hate flying and now giant waves! I guess I'll have to walk everywhere.

Yeah let's not leave out SUVs they're killers too.

BUMP

Oh man, when I read this over at Drudge you are the first person that popped in my mind.


I am not real understanding on the PWave info that you posted even though I have tried to comprehend it in the past I still have no idea what it all means.

But.....was this in the P wave silent zone by any chance?

bd476 there are some strange happenins going on Lakeview Oregon is shaking again.

Have you had a chance to check thermal hot spring temps in Oregon or Volcanic activity?

Having had a lot of years at sea I am familiar with the rogue wave. Now I have a better idea of the cause. We always thought it was from several wave systems coinciding at one point and generating a wave several times higher than the norm - sort of an oceanic moire pattern.

Actually my preferred transportation would be a big old Cadillac.

Okay, I've thought and thought, had two cups of tea, thought some more and all I have to say is "huh?" This one is probably obvious to most, but please 'splain anyway. :-)

Scary movie and great reference. I remember Shelley Winters' swimming scene and everyone going the wrong way on that ship.

[bd476]

Thanks for the link to larger images.

Dubya's toast. TOAST, I tell ya!

If that's a painting, it's more frightening than a photo.

> guess I'll have to walk everywhere

[savedbygrace]

Ah, the sea-based Butterfly Effect. ;-)

[bd476]

No, haven't checked into thermal hot springs yet. Take a look at some of the info I found and posted about Vancouver on that thread.

Well, drinking tea is a great start...
