    Quote from U.K newspaper science article today:

    "Within 15 minutes of this week's earthquake,scientists running the
    Pacific warning system sent an alert to 26 participating countries,
    including Thailand and Indonesia, that destructive waves might be
    generated."

    That's fine, but Thailand and Indonesia are both too close to the
    epicentre for such a warning to have been effective - and the other
    countries are not part of the Pacific system.

    Sensing/warning systems are needed throughout the world; not just in the
    Pacific.
