A few months ago, I watch a Discovery Channel program about the potential tsunami that a volcano on an island in the Atlantic could cause (I can't remember the island), anyway, they showed suspected evidence of tsunamis in the past. The evidence was in the form of extremely large boulders that were displaced in the Keys or possibly even the Bahamas. Anyway, these immense boulders showed a distinct pattern (mainly the area behind the boulders) of having been exposed to a very large wave. point being, there is suspected evidence of past tsunamis, cause unknown. I'll look around online and see if I can find any reference to these. Gary
