Tsunami Just-in-Time Lecture
----------------------------


Dear Friends,

The Tsunami in Asia was horrendous, and we wanted to do some-
thing to help. One of the major problems of Tsunami is "igno-
rance about Tsunami". This ignorance can lead to fear, and er-
rors in actions.

Ali Ardalan from Iran, Eugene Shubnikov from Russia, Faina Lin-
kov, Eric Noji and Ron LaPorte, from the USA created with you a
Tsunami Scientific lecture as we did for earthquakes. This lec-
ture is designed to provide to educators across the world the
best possible scientific lecture on Tsunamis. We also obtained
input from meteorologists and seismologists world wide. The lec-
ture can be found at:
www.pitt.edu/~super1/lecture/lec18071/index.htm

If you would like the PowerPoint files, please contact me
(mailto:ronlaporte@aol.com). This is a part of our Supercourse,
which is the global sharing of PowerPoint lectures on preven-
tion: http://www.pitt.edu/~super1/

Thanks so much. We would appreciate any comments. Please dis-
tribute this to the other members of your department. The lec-
ture can be used from young children to graduates. Please also
distribute this to your friends.
