I`m sure they do - but the tsunami reached California. You would be willing to sacrifice some other location with your magical method of moving an epicenter? Moving it a bit isn`t going to do anything but reduce the amount of shaking felt - the difference in tsunami size would be negligible. Unless, of course, you can somehow just take all the energy far far far away from the fault line and drop it in Antarctica or the like.
It is all completely ridiculous and yes somewhat amusing. But we are seeing our fair share of nutters on these forums since the quake...
