KingSkippus writes "According to CNet, a company named Posit Science has produced an online test using Flash that uses sounds to measure the speed of your brain down to the millisecond. According to the company, the test 'measures auditory processing (listening) speed—one of many measures of brain function...The faster we can take in information accurately, the better we can keep up with, respond to and remember what we hear.'"

Last I heard is that he lives at Barnes Place(a street) in Colombo. This is quite far from the coast, and Colombo itself hasn't been affected. So he probably should be safe.

The eastern,southern and south western coasts of Sri Lanka bore the brunt of the tsunamis. This includes a suburb of Colombo.

Sri Lanka is not a place where quakes and tsunamis happen. There were a few tremors, but not strong.There are no major faultlines near sri lanka.So the country is not prepared for this sort of thing.
