JAKARTA, Indonesia - The world's most powerful earthquake in 40 years struck deep under the Indian Ocean off the west coast of Sumatra on Sunday, triggering tidal waves up to 20 feet high that obliterated villages and seaside resorts in six countries across southern and southeast Asia. About 8,000 people were killed in the devastation.

as george carlin would put it... the planet will shake us off like a bad case of fleas when it wants to - the earth has been through major catastrophes, ice ages, major climatic shifts, and we think WE'RE going to destroy the planet? we're only here because the planet wanted plastic, now that our job is complete, we aren't needed anymore. ;)
