tsunami sparks

Beyond the boundaries of established science an avalanche of exotic ideas compete for our attention. Experts tell us that these ideas should not be permitted to take up the time of working scientists, and for the most part they are surely correct. But what about the gems in the rubble pile? By what ground-rules might we bring extraordinary new possibilities to light?

tsunami sparks

Unread post by smartart » Sat Oct 04, 2008 1:38 pm

A current series on BBC2 (much of it shown previously) refers to documentation of the 1607 English flood. An eye-witness account is said to refer to 'sparks coming from the advancing wave'.
It is asserted by the program makers that 'this is characteristic of tsunami'.

This would seem to fit nicely with the elecrical phenomena associated with tornados. I find it hard to believe that this is piezo charge from the ocean bed fault release, choosing to arc to air rather than dissipate through salt water, so what is going on?

For those who haven't seen the TV program:

I will follow the great Way alone
and fear nothing but being sidetracked.

but people delight in complexity.
