Scientists pore over wave data

News.com.au | Scientists pore over wave data (24-01-2005)

I don't know how everyone else feels, but there has clearly been a massive interest in the tsunami. I think everyone has been affected one way or another and , inspite of the massive devastation and destruction, it has demonstrated, that as a planet, we have some wonderful resources and people.It has proven that as a planet each person and each nation has something positive to contribute. It has shown unequivocally that we can rally in the face of the seemingly impossible and insurmountable and channel a path to the positive. I know from the visits to my site, general discussions and my own thinking, that people want to know. They want information. They are utterly curious and it is that very curiosity which has impelled us to climb out of the mire and play the cards we've been dealt as though we are experts. Humans can be astoundingly creative and positive. Give them a challenge, a free rein and they can rise above the quagmire and dazzle you with their inspiration. So I am glad the scientists are looking and pondering. My request is that we are all allowed to share this knowledge. My opinion is we should have books and DVDs and that the costs of the products should be covered and the profits go to worthy projects for the tsunami affected countries. Without their pain and loss , we'd have nothing to "study". It would satisfy our need to be curious and their need to be stabilised.
