I can't name the projects as you'll get the developer, but what I saw over the next 5 years is simply breathtaking. You ain't seen nothing yet.

I think the guys at scyscrapercity.com forums will really appreciate you ;)

Seismologist can predict (not sure though) the tsunami by the magnitude & energy pulse of the earthquake through satellite and the purpose of prediction is to give warning to the people that natural calamities are coming. However, the tsunami that happened in asia wasn't able to predict as the earthquake originally starts from sumatra and they thought it won't reach that far, but the pulses have several levels, which they failed to see. Also, the earthquake starts from the deep water.

:D I know the site you mean. My interest in the industry was primarily financial but was blown away by the pics. Those guys get a hard on for new types of concrete mix.

Tsunami has been seriously considered during the development of the Palm / World, however due to the fact that the Gulf waters are so shallow it is considered impossible to be able to develop and sustain such a tidal wave as seen in Sri Lanka etc.
