Japan devastation - I can't believe my eyes

This afternoon my worries, and there are a few, suddenly looked quite modest, in comparison to the truly devastating earthquake and tsunami in Japan. The local TV media say there is no tsunami danger to Australia, but there is still a warning in effect for many countries including Australia, Taiwan, Indonesia, PNG, New Zealand and (get this) Antarctica:

The tsunami is expected to hit Taiwan soon. It might be too dark to see it if it hits as it is getting dark in Taiwan now:

If you live anywhere near the Pacific Ocean, please stay informed and stay safe!
