So, what do you conclude? Is there even the remote possibility that the tsunami has a manmade origin like a nuclear detonation?

Re: here's a pic from my last post there to Gus which clearly shows that, seismographically, it's not possible to confuse an earthquake with a nuclear explosion. Wrong: it's possible to confuse them seismographically speaking... and that's why NBT people use hydroacoustic stations --in addition to seismographic ones-- to discriminate between genuine earthquakes and nuclear explosions. Earthquakes are basically soundless --very low frequencies, infrasounds-- whereas nuclear blasts leave a footprint in the acoustic spectre. Besides, I've noticed that the hydroacoustic station closest to the Sumatra quake/nuclear blast was... Diego Garcia!! LOL A US-operated station on a British islet!!! Now, hydroacoustic waves can travel thousands of miles underwater without significant loss (in amplitude) so that Chinese, European,... stations should have picked up any hydroacoustic pike on Dec 26. However, as the document I showed you stated, hydroacoustic data are CONFIDENTIAL/CLASSIFIED data and are the exclusive property of the NBT signatories. In short, just because hydroacoustic stations pick up a nuclear blast doesn't mean that such information will be disclosed "live" to CNN.... Gus
