> As I'm sure everyone knows by now, northeastern Japan was hit by a  
> horrendous earthquake (8.8 on the Richter scale according to recent  
> accounts) and a tsunami which has inundated coastal areas in the  
> Tohoku region, including the major city of Sendai.  Tokyo was not  
> quite as severely affected, but public transportation systems were  
> suspended out of concern for safety and there are reports of  
> electrical outages in certain portions of the city.  Western Japan  
> seems to be OK.
