Apparently, the fact that a devastating tsunami was not generated from yesterday's Indonesian earthquake is sheer luck.

The wave that was generated from the quake was sent southwest and basically petered out in the middle of the Indian Ocean; had it gone in any other direction (i.e. towards land), the consequences would have been devastating.

Here in Maputo, as far as I could tell, there were absolutely no effects felt from the earthquake.

And thus, life continues as normal around these parts...
