That's what I get for answering the phone at this hour.
Some woman asking if it was true BC is on earthquake alert and saying she was told we're in danger of a Tsunami and her daughter is freaking out.

I explained even if we DID get hit by a Tsunami, chances are it wouldn't come 400km inland.

1. India just issued a tsunami alert
so that's likely what set everybody off again.

400K inland is pushing it though. :D

3. If it made it this far...
I stands on my porch and say "You've earned it, take me away."

4. 400km - that's... um... (where's my calculator?)
Damn you metrical northerners... That's like 250 miles or so.
