Watching the early morning news this side of planet earth, seems you folks are getting it big time again in New Zealand hope you are all safe.

What with parts of Australia under water and you folk getting shaken off the planet real hard, I hope and pray you are staying safe and your close families likewise?

Echoing Englishtiv, my thoughts are with all who are suffering having suddenly been plunged into such a devastating nightmare. I P.M.'d Mobius yesterday early evening G.M.T. but have had no reply.

no more floods here, but if I had to choose between floods or earthquake, I would rather pick a flood anyday,
what has happened in Christchurch is pretty bad, what remained standing from the previous quake has now collapsed, it will take a while to know the number of casualties :,( :,(
...one thing for sure, we are copping it bad down under lately :dunno:

I have experienced an earthquake and it was a terrible tragedy.
I'm close with the thought to my Aussie and New Zealander friends.

I got an email from Skins and all is well in Wellington, NZ. A few hundred miles away and hardly a shake. I'm happy he's OK but sad for the others....
