Subject: RE: BS: earthquake, related tsunami bring death
The last Tsunami of any size in the Indian Ocean was (I Believe) in 1836 . It is hardly surprising that there was NO Tsunami early warning system in place in the Indian Ocean as the last people who actually experienced this died the best part of a hundred years ago . An interesting side effect of this catastrophe is that there is wide coverage on the American Media . A Terrible way to give so many Americans a Geography Lesson !
