8.8 Magnitude Earthquake hit Japan

[Skidmark]

A guy on a 12-21-12 forum predicted a massive quake on March 11th back in January. Pretty crazy.... Says more is in store and has a lot to do with lunar activity.

I normally don't take much stock in the 2012 stuff, but whoa. If that doesn't warrant one huge "I told ya so" I don't know what does

well, that's going to kill any momentum towards using more nuclear power here in the USA....

Just confirmed meltdown is certain to happen

I'd like to be in their control room surrounded by some Japanese girls with fat tits.

I just got a pic from one of our environmental consultants of the tsunami wave sweeping into the SF bay:

Thanks for the pic, I just texted that to people. Fyi, that's the Bay Bridge and SF in the background, so this was taken somewhere around Oakland.

If I was in northern Japan, I would be heading southwest right now.

yup..

Thank goodness my In-laws are about 250 miles south..

However, the way I've been hearing it, they are not in danger of a Chernobyl type meltdown because they were successful in getting the control rods lowered down into the core. They are saying that the worst they are looking at is a Three Mile Island type meltdown.

Of course that is bad enough but Chernobyl is VASTLY worse..

More problems.

Update at 6:25 p.m. ET: Problem At Second Nuclear Plant.

Tokyo Electric Power Co. says it can no longer control pressure inside some of the reactors at a second nuclear power plant at its Fukushima facility in northeastern Japan, according to Reuters.

That plant is now the second to be placed on Japan's nuclear safety agency's emergency list today, says Kyodo News. Government officials are ordering TEPCO to release some of the vapor from another power plant, which was put on the list earlier today, according to Kyodo.

Really glad everyone is ok.

She's an awesome gal. She loves football. Heck, we actually scheduled out Japan trip so SHE wouldn't miss the NFL draft...

Man, what a crazy morning for us...

For those of you that don't know, my wife Miyako is from Tokyo. My In-laws live in the area.

We got a call from my Mom this morning asking if we had heard about the quake yet. We hadn't even gotten out of bed by then. Miyako was able to get in touch with her parents via Skype. They live about 40 miles south of Tokyo. They're pretty shaken up but everything is otherwise OK and their house is still in one piece.

My Sister-In-Law lives in Tokyo. Her family is OK. Everything was tossed around in their condo and they have no natural gas (probably a good thing at the moment) but they have power and internet access.

We were supposed to fly to Tokyo on Wednesday but that is obviously on hold. American Airlines' website indicates that no one will be flying to Tokyo until around March 25th. I expect that to change since the situation is very fluid. I just heard on NHK that Narita airport had reopened but I can't imagine they are doing much since the highway and train lines are all shut down..

Really glad everyone is ok.
