Aradhippou is an unexpected place for epicenter. One thing to be careful about is whether this will be followed by more shakes and when that happens it sucks! You cant relax because you are expecting the next one or the big one.
Oranos, you are scaring people with this talk of huge tidla waves and 8 richter! At that intensity nothing will be left standing. HOw did you get that forecast? A tidal wave from Thira would reach Cyprus? That would be bad.

my father use to work for the british geological services ...my dads friend sent me to thira ... i study the data from there every two weeks ....

There is a good deal of data on thira ... The stuff i read is about a tidal wave and a magitude of at least 8 .....it is overdue ....
that would produce a wave of 60-100 feet ....
