This will be a massive human disaster.

7.3...only 20miles deep...oceans.

The entire Gulf of Mexico...especially Florida is at risk. In fact, if there is a tsunami, it's probably there now.

Just speculating. Wouldn’t an earthquake under shallow water produce less of a tsunami due to the fact it wouldn’t have to move as much water?

small quakes are fairly common, ones this size are damned rare.

prayers to the good folks of Haiti, this is the last thing they need.
