You know, Sweden was the coutry outside of Asia that got hit the worst. 3559 dead last time i checked SkyNews. Few days ago wehad 20 000 missing.

Thailand: 3,000 Swedes may be among dead
(CNN) -- At least 246 non-nationals have been killed in the tsunamis of December 26, and hundreds more are missing. Following is a breakdown from official sources in the citizens' countries, unless otherwise noted. Australia: 11 dead; the government says it has "grave concerns" about 107 others; another 950 Australians are unaccounted for Austria: 5 dead, more than 100 missing Britain: 40 dead Canada: 5 dead, 13 missing and another 74 unaccounted for Denmark: 7 dead, 14 missing Finland: 4 dead; the foreign ministry says another 214 people are missing France: 22 dead, 18 injured Germany: 26 dead, hundreds missing. Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder said he fears "a significant three-digit number of Germans will be among the dead." Israel: 4 dead, 6 missing Italy: 14 dead, 600 missing Japan: 8 dead, according to Sri Lankan foreign minister. New Zealand: 1 dead, 64 missing Norway: 21 dead, 462 missing Portugal: 8 missing; others unaccounted for but not yet listed missing. Russia: 10 injured, some missing. Foreign ministry has no confirmed fatalities; Thai authorities have said Russians are among the dead. Singapore: 3 dead Spain: Foreign Ministry has no confirmations of any deaths; 11 reported missing in Thailand. Sweden: 52 bodies have been identified. Another 2,915 Swedes are listed as missing. The Swedish prime minister's office has said the death toll could rise to as many as 1,000. The Thai government believes more than 3,000 people missing in Thailand are Swedish tourists. Switzerland: 9 dead Turkey: Turkish Airlines is sending a jet to Maldives to pick up what they believe will be 300 Turkish nationals there. United States: 15 dead. Other: Dead and/or missing also have been reported but unconfirmed by CNN from Belgium, China, South Africa, South Korea and Taiwan. |

There was some country that lost 75% of it's people. Although I cannot remember which one.

Because of this quake the earth has pushed 6 degrees off its axis. So our days are now 15 minutes shorter aparently. ed:

I call bullshit on that. Do you know how significant 6 degrees would be? It would fuck everything up. That would definetly have an impact on the arctic and polar ice caps, as well as seasons all over the world. And the length of the day has to do with the speed of rotation, not at what angle we rotate at. Unless the earthquake sped up the rotation of the earth on it's axis, I don't see how we could be 15 minutes shorter, |

28/1/3pim1.html Quake rattled Earth orbit, changed map of Asia: US geophysicist An earthquake that unleashed deadly tidal waves on Asia was so powerful it made the Earth wobble on its axis and permanently altered the regional map, US geophysicists said. The 9.0-magnitude temblor that struck 250 kilometers (155 miles) southeast of Sumatra island Sunday may have moved small islands as much as 20 meters (66 feet), according to one expert. "That earthquake has changed the map," US Geological Survey expert Ken Hudnut told AFP. "Based on seismic modeling, some of the smaller islands off the southwest coast of Sumatra may have moved to the southwest by about 20 meters. That is a lot of slip." The northwestern tip of the Indonesian territory of Sumatra may also have shifted to the southwest by around 36 meters (120 feet), Hudnut said. In addition, the energy released as the two sides of the undersea fault slipped against each other made the Earth wobble on its axis, Hudnut said. "We can detect very slight motions of the Earth and I would expect that the Earth wobbled in its orbit when the earthquake occurred due the massive amount of energy exerted and the sudden shift in mass," Hudnut said. Another USGS research geophysicist agreed that the Earth would have got a "little jog," and that the islands off Sumatra would have been moved by the quake. However, Stuart Sipkin, of the USGS National Earthquake Information Center in Golden Colorado, said it was more likely that the islands off Sumatra had risen higher out of the sea than they had moved laterally. "In in this case, the Indian plate dived below the Burma plate, causing uplift, so most of the motion to the islands would have been vertical, not horizontal." The tsunamis unleashed by the fourth-biggest earthquake in a century have left at least 23,675 people dead in eight countries across Asia and as far as Somalia in East Africa. The tsunamis wiped out entire coastal villages and pulled beach-goers out to sea. The International Red Cross estimated that up to one million people have been displaced by the natural calamity. _____________________________ sorry its a little long. |

Doesn't say anything about the axis of the earth off by 6 degrees, or the days being shorter. Their detecting a wobble, but that will probably steadily drop off after a few months or years and the earth will return to a normal orbit. Perhaps the quake did change the orbit in some way permanently, but I don't think it was enough to impact the days by 15 minutes, or change anything we'll ever notice. |
