Did yall hear about the 8.9 quake :shock: in indonesia or whatever country it was really in?
The tsunami was huge and killed lots of people. I hope the death toll stops growing too much.

It's up to 44,000 now, but yeah that was a bad thing to hear about the day after Christmas. Something like 11 countries hit by the waves.

The crazy part is it MIGHT make a sudden job growth here in the states again. In all places the Tech, Health care, and whoever else has floated jobs over seas to India. Think about that for a bit...

Well, according to the guys I spoke with in India this morning (night there), it didn't affect them at all. I didn't get into where they are vs. the shore etc..., but they did say it didn't affect them at all.

I heard on the news it even knocked the earth off its axis and made that day shorter than it should have been by a few ticks.
