Such rumors are hardly new to the DR. While I was living in SD a tsunami rumor started late one night in SPM, and within hours droves of people in SD were standing around in the Mirador park to wait out the tidal wave! :laugh: :laugh:

My mother-in-law tells of a similar panic in SD when she was young, also based solely on rumor.
