"The Big Picture" - Insane Tsunami Photos

Incredible - the Boston Globe has done it again - before and after images showing the scene today as opposed to that seen a year ago right after the event. Click image to see the scene as it was a year ago. Damn, that's a LOT of water. Striking me most is the photo of a suburban street, with a small nondescript house on it. Flick back to a year ago to see a full sized ocean-going ship on the font lawn. Simply amazing. The Japanese have really knuckled down and cleaned up the debris, transforming their landscape. I actually wonder where it has all been moved to. I guess there are some pretty big piles somewhere. I guess that steel shortages will not be a problem for a while in Japan.
