    Here is a video that is really unbelievable. Watch to the end as it shows the water rising from ground to who knows how high. It is a must see for all of us. Just think of the loss of life, the loss of food and clean water, the spread of sewage let alone all the other material losses.

    Very interesting what the American media shows us compared to international outlets - it seems quite moderated and 'toned down'.

    Glad to hear that your friends are ok, Grama Lehr!

    So glad to hear your friends are okay. It probably will still be a tough go for Japan for a while.

    Thank you.That is amazing video. I kept thinking of that Johnny Cash song, "How High's the Water Mama."

    I would be scared out of my mind watching that water rising and not knowing when it would stop!!!! That was one brave person.
