http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=102x4765035I was walking down the hall finally getting to go to bed when the text message popped up with 8 Richter scale number on my phone. I did a 180 in the hallway and rushed back to the computer. I knew it was going to be bad, but it turned out to be worse than I imagined. I turned on the TV to see the aerial live footage of the tsunami (it's 2 a.m. ET, remember), and I began to realize I was watching people die.
