What a horrific disaster for you and your countrymen. One can only hope you stay safe and that critical services and are restored as quickly as possible. Our thoughts are with all of you. Again thanks all for the kind words,honestly my heart goes out to fellow New Zealanders who have lost property ,buildings and in the longterm their income,very sad,the worse effected area is almost solely dependant on tourism,with little or no roads in the outlook is very bleack for their future. For example the most effected area is a place called Kaikoura which is a farming/fishing town,population 2000 people,the airforce are airlifting 700 stranded oversea's visitors out as we speak. The Navy is bringing in warships to ferry local people aboard from the shore how have little left. The government has looked @ the situation and have acted very quickly,its great cause all the BS infighting go's away and they earn their huge taxpayer funded wages (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) . I have finally had some contact from an old longtime surf buddy who lives in the area and his wife are ok,started surfing @ 15yrs old and spent many great times there surfing world class waves,holds a place in my heart for sure. |

Thoughts and prayers from California for those affected there.
We were looking at some of the ground failures there at my work today. Sobering from my downtown Los Angeles office. |

The current news now is of the amateur meteorologist that predicted the quake a week before it happened.
Look-up Frankie MacDonald on YouTube. Lucky guess??? Glad you are OK!!! At least with rain, snow, tornados, hurricanes there is some type of warning! |
