Panic is widespread in Japan after this dispatch. Stocks are crumbling down; people leaving the country jam airports. In other parts of the world, particulary those that are prone to earthquakes, panic spreads. The Japanese government, in a press release, urges the population to calm down and announces that they will hire a team of scientists to investigate the International Enquirer claims. The governments of California, Italy, India, Saudi Arabia also decide to hire their own teams of scientists to investigate these claims.
YOU have been hired by the one of these governments
to be part of a team. Not only must you confirm or disprove the Enquirer's
allegations, but you also have to explain to the concerned population the
mechanisms leading to the possible destruction of their homeland.
