We will find out what will happen with hawaii too.

 

I'm watching the TV, the wave was suppose to hit by now...but it hasn't.
Maybe the world is really going to end in 2012 ?

 

I live in argentina, and we "feel" a little tremblor. Yesterday was a very sad day for all latin america.

 

I'm worried because I've family in Chile, but especially for my Aunt because she lives in Algarrobo (a beach). Btw this user, FHN, lives in Viña del Mar. Hope he's ok.

 

It's sad. But you can't do anything about mother nature unfortunately. I am just curious about what they will do with the Haitians. Say goodbye and help these other people or no?

 

Well, not at all because Chile isn't a third world country anymore. Probably they'll get help, but I don't think people will forget Haiti.

 

My best wishes and prayers go out to all the people affected

 

It wouldn't surprise me if there was one in California or possibly Mexico very soon.

 

Some asian countries will be experiencing Level 1-2 tsunami
