And now we have come full circle in a way. 2004, the year of the Tsunami. Quakes and tsunamis. Causes and effects. Violence and calm. Barely noticeable waves in one place wreaking havoc in other places. Turbulence…It's a long piece, but you should check the whole thing out.

I call 2004 a tsunami year partly because we are just now gaining perspective on the great displacement of power and culture caused by the earthquake we felt on September 11, 2001. We can see that some great waves have already arrived and done their damage, and other great waves are still traveling through the open ocean. When will they break, and how destructive will they be when they do?
