The folks who were swept away in the US were down there to take frekin' pictures, Cite? http://www.newser.com/story/113960/c...for-man-swept- out-to-sea.html http://world-news.newsvine.com/_news...-man-swept-to- death-by-tsunami-wave-in-calif?threadId=3075799&commentId=52420520 they had plenty of warning without another govt boondoggle. You mean the existing government boondoggle, those tsunami sensors? The boondoggle that gave the warnings? (allowing the smartest to flee?) When they tell you to got to higher ground and you grab your camera and go to the beach then you should be shot so that we know you are dead and we don't have to risk other people's lives to go look for you. As far as "the thinning of the herd", like Wiggy says, "Truly stupid people will find ways to kill themselves no matter what you do to try to protect them from themselves"... Those folks who went down to take pictures and tied up the Coast Guard should have to pay for the rescue and be charged complicit in the death of their friend... Dumb asses... Wow! Do you feel that strongly about people that are hurt in motorcycle racing accidents? Or boat racing? Rock climbing? Etc.? People who involve themselves in risky activities assume the risk. When I was skydiving I knew that each time I made a skydive I could die, become physical disabled or break a finger nail. Do you still do any skydiving? My younger daughter wants to try it. Hell, I'd go with her (maybe). Why would ANYBODY, in their right mind, of course, jump out of a perfectly good airplane??? -- Fort Agent 6.00 Build 1186 "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do.
