Not that I necessarily believe all that 2012 bs; but is it just me or have large scale earthquakes been occurring more frequently throughout past year or two than in previous years?

Well, Japan has been known to have alot of earthquakes, as Japan is on a tectonic plate.

Hope people there get help where they need it though.

I wouldn't call it trolling. I do apologize for the lack of sympathy (and humour) in my previous post. I have realized my errors, and my thoughts are with the families of those affected, and those who will be affected, by this earthquake. The Japanese have given the world so much, I feel it is necessary to at least offer an apology for my offensive comment.

that's what I've been thinking too, and the weather has kind of been out of whack these few years

kind of having a melt down right now because I have friends in northeastern Japan and more friends of mine just left Toronto Thursday morning for Tokyo and I have yet to hear from any body

and people tweeting about what's going on is not helping, but seriously people, if your life is in immediate danger you do not go on twitter to tweet about the water level or whatever, you gtfo of there

don't think I'll be able to sleep tonight ;^;
