ANOTHER 8.2 quake hit off the coast of indonesia - 8.2 is the estimate of its strength - they are evactuating people to higher ground, if it does spark a tsunammi it is expected to hit somewhere around 4p EST.

cnn is reporting that the magnitude of the quake has been raised to 8.7, and a "small" tsunami was recorded as being 100 miles of the coast of indonesia, but that likelyhood of the same type of tsunami that occurred on 26Dec is unlikely at this point.... :cheers:   good to hear that.  hopefully no more damage will take place to the region.

Wonder if I ever told you guys that I lived on Sumatra for two years when a young laddy. Up in the mountains, near the equator in a little village called Leric.

We never felt an earthquake, but there was a war for a while that required us kids and their mothers to flee up into the higher mountains for safety. Near where the headhunters lived. I guess it was safer then staying in Leric.
