Swallowed By the Sea
Tomer: for Newsweek-- "As Japan reels from the tsunami, archeologists claim to have discovered the lost city of Atlantis, a fabled place built--like much of the world--in the crosshairs of nature." The idea was to keep the focus on the human peril aspect of this primal threat looming above civilazation since the dawn of time.
