#1 That post-Tsunami photo of a HUGE JAPANESE CATAMARAN FERRY laid atop a much smaller concrete, urban or residential building reminds me of a famous photo taken on Guam after SUPER-TYPHOON PAMELA back in 1976, A PHOTO OF A LONG, THIN OR LEAN PIECE OF METALLIC PANE DRIVEN RIGHT THROUGH THE TOUGH CENTERLINE OF A LOCAL COCONUT/PALM TREE.

Momma Nature didn't need any LASER GUNSIGHT OR OTHER to do that.

* 1990's > Guam + PACOAS were also at risk from the "THE GREATEST STORM OF THE CENTURY", A SUPER-DUPER SUPERTYPHOON THAT IN SIZE APPEARED TO TAKE UP 2/3-3/4's OF THE ENTIRE PACIFIC REGION ON THE TV SAT PHOTOS.

Fortunately, the above's mega-size did not come wid complementary = matching storm power. As GLOBAL WARMING intensifies oer the coming years + decades, I suspect the opposite will steadily occur. OCEAN STORMS MAY BECOME MORE "COMPACT" WID THE POWER OF FAST-MOVING TORNADOES, SUPER- OR MEGA-TORNADOES, CLOSER TO THE KIND OF TORNADO STORMS EXPERIENCED ON THE US-NORAM MAINLAND. THERE WILL BE SEEMINGLY LONG MOMENTS OR PERIODS OF ANTICIPATORY SILENCE FOLLOWED BY BRIEF-BUT-HORRIFIC SHAKIN-N-BREAKIN.

#2 We mistakenly thought - once again - that GODZILLA + MOTHRA + RODAN + GAMERA, ETAL. WAS JUST FRIDAY-NIGHT "SCIENCE FICTION", DIDN'T WE???
