It's relentless. A 7.1 is not the initial morbid 9, but it's still hella strong. Here's hoping for the best, will be probably organizing another round of donations here - luckily, by now, there's a far bigger batch of options available.

My best goes to Japan, hang in there!

I'm sure they'll be able to deal with it so I don't worry too much.

How many areas of the earth are safe from disaster and still offer proximity to ocean/lakes/rivers?

Not that its bad to donate, but wouldn't the end cause get more money for what they need if they did not make and distsriubute bands/items for donating? I've always wondered how that got so popular. I mean I know they are cheap but they aren't free either.
