Ahhhaaa! Now we know why Nav's been missing from the ng since the

EXPERIMENTAL BOMB TO CREATE HUGE TIDAL WAVE WAS TESTED IN 1944
SECRET WARTIME experiments were conducted off the New Zealand coast to
perfect a bomb that could trigger devastating tidal waves, according to
government files declassified in Auckland. The New Zealand Herald, citing
the files, said that senior United States defence officials believed the
weapon had the potential to be as deadly as the atomic bomb. But the
tsunami bomb, as it was known, was never fully tested and the war ended
before the project was completed.
