Officials in Thailand had a meeting after the initial earthquake as to whether to issue warnings to the coastal areas, but they decided against it. This was partially because of bad information (they thought the earthquake was of a lesser magnitude), and partially because the tourism industry could be hurt by an evacuation. (The same thing happened in "Jaws". The business owners didn't want to close the beaches, and look what happened.)

Anyway, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration sent out warnings when the quake registered, but we weren't really sure who to send the warnings to. After all, it was on the other side of the world.

Naturally, the moonbats are out in force on this story. By this time Friday, President Bush will have caused the earthquake. How do these people get through the day?
