The point I was trying to get across is that a lot of these funded studies are telling us things we already know. Tsunamis could be dangerous to L.A.? We better fund that study to find out for sure....

The point of these things is not to show that they would cause damage; that's a given. They are trying to calculate how much damage.


I've been working for the government for too long....

It's still a waste of money.

In event of a tsunami, LA is fucked. 84 Quadrillion dollars in damages estimated.
