Tsunami Warning 6/16/2005

The other day here in California we had a 7.0 earthquake off of the coast of Northern California, which led to a tsunami warning. Now lets analyze just how stupid people really are. After the tsunami warning...which covered beaches from the Mexican border all the way to Oregon...people actually went to the beach to see if one came ashore. Another lady called 911 and asked if it was practice and whether she should take her cats with her...now mind you the warning stated that they had 20 minutes to evacuate...and this lady is wondering what exactly is meant by higher ground! This just goes to show how ignorant some people truly are....werent people paying attention a few months ago to Indonesia?  I wish to God that stupidity was painful!
