Focus just slightly below the middle of the image. There is a Red one with about 10 or so cars right behind it.

Thanks Phelan! Lol

Damn, didn't realize those were all Nissans. I remember a number of years ago a big container ship full of Mazdas sunk. I would guess this is probably worse. But I'm sure Nissan's got all of those suckers insured.

I wonder how many forum members orders are going to be delayed because their cars were destroyed on the docks. Still, a trivial thought considering the loss of life. What a terrible situation.

Somehow, 30 below with a wind this morning doesn't sound so bad.

Incredible devastation.

The aftershocks are bigger than most regular earthquakes. They just had a 6.6 magnitude aftershock.

If there were two races I'd want to rebuild something, quickly, efficiently (cost and otherwise), and methodically: it would the Japanese and the Germans. They get it done like no other.

We'll be there helping them, too. Don't forget that.

Oh, I agree, but only after we wade knee-deep in the sewer pond of US politics.

Obama's deploying the military. F*ck the politics, two aircraft carriers and naval support ships already steaming towards the Japanese coast. For once we acted quickly!

BTW - this is a GREAT article in the NY Times.
