Greetings. What are some of the scientific impacts of the 9.0 earthquake off the coast of Japan?

One news report indicated that the shelf off Japan dropped a couple of feet and the earth got smaller. This leads to faster rotation and that we loose time - 1.8 microseconds every 24 hours!

Also, the northern part of Japan moved 13 feet closer to the U.S.!

The impacts of the earthquake will be far reaching.

Right now the world is in emergency response and the stock markets haven't stopped falling. A major problem are the markets we were only starting to come back and the third largest enconomy just took a major hit.

Nuclear energy rallies in germany. Many questions being asked in the US. Good news though we will learn from their mistakes. Can we really devise a system that is nature proof.

Japan's leadership and direction have to come into question. Will the people support the current or want major change.

If the world enconomy tanks again what else will change.
