It's really awesome (in the true sense of the word) and terrifying isn't it?

I find myself wondering what we'll be facing in future too...climate change (or...whatever the hell else) seems to be throwing increasingly 'interesting' natural disasters at us. QLD seems to be the ongoing victim this time around, but we can't all avoid this stuff forever, I think.
Or maybe I'm just getting all overly doomsday. Beats me.
