Hi Quads,

 

I heard about the latest quakes on the news this morning.  They said some structures that were deemed still safe after the main quake have now been damaged by these latest two to the point of being beyond repair.  I imagine you have probably decided to just keep everything on the floor........

Glad to hear from you , Quads. Ro Allen, a wizop on Compuserve, posted about it earlier today. She's not right in the middle of it luckily.

Glad the PC is on wheels, and yeah stuff is broken Oh Well, never a dull moment in CHCH

 

the 5.5 shake has been upgraded to 5.6 and the 6.0 shake has been upgraded to 6.3

 I feel considering the positioning point of where they live; " At the Crosshair of four Techtonic Plates beneath them"- That are deciding all too move again, I feel sorry for them knowing there is still a bumpy road ahead of them too!...:smileysurprised:

There is a very nice writeup and theories here as to what is happening where:

Now a 30% - 32% chance of another 6.0 to 6.9 magnitude shake for us in the next year.

 

Another 5.0 shake this morning

 

Now seen as one of the most unusual Earthquake sequences known Worldwide.

I don't suppose that is much comfort to you or anybody in NZ, though.  :smileysad:

I've seen nearly every Godzilla movie. I think I know what's going on here.

 

Quads, we care about you. Get out! NOW!

 

:smileywink:

It's OK, gone out and did buy platic plates and cups, OH well maybe up to 30 years of this.

Looks pretty good in B.C. Quads.  This was the best show we could put on since 1985. It's just slightly over 1 per year. You would be bored. :smileywink:

The UK is pretty boring also - folllowing is a recent BGS report on activity.
