:D yep - that's what happens when the media are short on news. Pump it up and put a local taint on it. Forget the odds, just put the fcuking fear of god into anyone living in a low lying area with an event that has a probability of millions to one against. "It could happen some day" Yep, it could. My daughters will wash the dishes and tidy their room one day too. What a fcuking beat up. Asteroids smashing your house because you're in a galactic vortex region will be next. Probability determines you can't discount any possible eventuality, so let's get paranoid about all of them. Fcuk sake.

I still don't buy the "official" narrative about 9/11. Oh sure, it happened, fcuk yeah. But who and why and how I'm, not convinced it was what we've been told.

Very good Schrödinger. (puurri speak)

Do you all know that a meteor 800 m across in diameter if landed in central NSW it would destroy all of NSW?

Life could end at ay time.......even in the next 18 seconds....so does anything at all really matter?

Live it up at all costs. It will all be over before we know it.

Time to get a really good coffee at tsunami safe North Bondi.

Manly would be toast along with the rest of the Sydney's coastline and suburbs


"The largest palaeo-tsunami waves in Australia swept sediment across the continental shelf and obtained flow depths of 15-20 m at the coastline with velocities in excess of 10 m s-1. In New South Wales, along the cliffs of Jervis Bay, waves reached elevations of more than 80 m above sea-level with evidence of flow depths in excess of 10 m. These waves swept 10 km inland over the Shoalhaven delta. In northern Queensland, boulders more than 6 m in diameter and weighing 286 tonnes were tossed alongshore above cyclone storm wave limits inside the Great Barrier Reef. In Western Australia waves overrode and breached 60 m high hills up to 5 km inland. Shell debris and cobbles can be found within deposits mapped as dunes, 30 km inland."

I guess the US will bomb the shit out of Spain in response to that after it happens. Actually.... come to think of it they'd invade Portugal instead as that would make even less sense. :D
The wave at Curl Curl is so good they had to name it twice :mrgreen:
