"Conversation. What is it? A Mystery! It's the art of never seeming bored, of touching everything with interest, of pleasing with trifles, of being fascinating with nothing at all. How do we define this lively darting about with words, of hitting them back and forth, this sort of brief smile of ideas which should be conversation?" Guy de Maupassant

Fresh Tsunami Warning from Home Ministry in India

I hope this doesn't happen but nature has its own ways.  There's an alert issued by the Home Ministry on the possibility of a fresh tsunami attack in coastal southern India.  This is on almost all our TV channels right now and they are asking people not to panic.  The Army, Navy and Airforce is on alert.

CNN reports :

Indian authorities have issued a tsunami warning for Tamil Nadu state, ordering those near the coast to head inland.  The reason for the evacuation notice was not clear.  Sources said the ministry received information from foreign governments regarding tectonic plate shifting near Australia. However, there was no evidence of any major seismological activity on the U.S. Geological Survey's Web site.
