Just pondering the shear power of water. A cubic foot of water weighs 62.4 lbs. The Russian is running 30,400 cubic feet per  SECOND right now. That's 1,896,960 lbs per SECOND!!!!!!!!! Or 948.48 tons........ Now just imagine how much water was running through Japan last week. The Russian is just a trickle compared to the flow running through Japan. No wonder those buildings went down like match sticks......  :smt009 Truely an amazing show of the power of nature.

Thanks for the math and reality check. Something I thought was amazing was how many houses were washed away whole not destroyed.
