Ok, sue me, i didn't see the 300-500 years thing from 1700s. Sorry for the double post. Ok, sue me, i didn’t see the 300-500 years thing from 1700s.

That would really suck if we got hit by a tsunami here in the U.S. I mean, sure, I'm in Missouri, so I'm pretty far inland, but we could still get bowled over and drowned by a tsunami from the Gulf of Mexico. I agree, a quake in that area could be of large enough magnitude to give birth to a tsunami, but I'm willing to bet not in my lifetime. Sue me if I'm wrong. tch.
