Let's bring some sanity (and some physics) to this theory. If you look at the expanse of ocean west of the Azores you will see a fairly large expanse of the Atlantic Ocean going west, north, and south. The thing is, water from an earthquake or tsunami DOES NOT travel in a straight line, it goes everywhere in all directions where there is no resistance. A fairly large volume of displaced water originating in the Azores will expand in all directions, such that by the time the wave reaches across the Atlantic, it will hardly be noticed because it will be distributed along a several thousand mile coastline from Canada to the tip of South America. There will be no destruction to the US east coast from the Azores.
