:I don't pretend to understand the physics/geology/whatever of the matter; all I (or anyone at Wikipedia) can do is to look at what reputable sources say. Some say that a landslide could cause a tsunami, while some don't. Unless one side concedes, it's not for us to take sides.

:Well, though as of now this site does not represent an "us" to me, it seems that when two legitimate sides to an issue exist, both should be equally represented. To my mind, it does not take a physicist or geologist to see the patent absurdity of a shallow landslide of any size propagating a tsunami over the surface of a sea for thousands of miles. A tsunami is NEVER a surface phenomenon, as verified above by Laura Kong. Those who have lept to such conclusions have done so on the basis of geological evidence found in remote areas that suggests a possible link to other areas far afield at which such slides have ocurred. Not exactly incontrovertable.
