The authors are now providing a second lecture "Earthquake & Tsunami South Asia, 26 Dec 2004." < The mission of the Supercourse is to translate the best possible scholarly information from leading researchers to educators. The Supercourse represents a global scientific effort of over 20,000 scholars to improve sharing of scientific information from research to the classroom. After the original announcement was sent out, it was estimated that in the 5 days between Jan. 4 - Jan. 9, 2005, about 255,000 people heard about and saw the Tsunami Powerpoint lecture. These lectures are a gift that is meant to be freely distributed. Please pass this message on to other libraries, educators and interested people across the world.
