scientiest say parts of Japan sank 2 feet causing the water to rush in


which means Japan's land mass is less now. global warming will claim even more land as the glaciers melt.

the areas of the nuke plants will be off limits forever. making the countries livable areas even less.

they do have hills and mountains. guess people will be moving up hill.

10. LOL
I was thinking someone was just posting their random thoughts, much like twittering. Which is also pretty useless.

3. John Donne's poetry says it all
"No man is an island entire of itself;
every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main;
if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less,
as well as if a promontory were,
as well as a manor of thy friends or of thine own were;
any man's death diminishes me,
because I am involved in mankind.

And therefore never send to know for whom
the bell tolls; it tolls for thee."

or at least she has a new song that expresses her desire to see him.
