[simpits-tech] Hey Sean...

[Sean Galbraith]

Roy... *that* is funny :-)   But I suspect that we'll have a rise in
earthquake taxes soon, so this may have been the last one we will be
having... or at least we HOPE it is!

Have a peek..... the blonde flash across the middle of one screen is
Jamie, our codie..... I didn't know that codies could actually run!

Sean - put me in the middle of a 6.3 quake and you'd have more sewage
than you could handle.

Glad to hear that you and yours are all safe. I've only experienced one
tiddly quake (about 2 years ago) since they are heavily taxed in the UK
so we can't afford many of them.

Scared the crap outta me though so I don't envy you guys at all.

Let's hope things settle down quickly and stay settled for a long, long
time!

Hey Guys,

Thanks for the thoughts... this one was a major shake, the devastation
is pretty amazing.  Deathtoll is sitting at 71 currently, but is sure to
rise as they get through some of destroyed buildings.

Luckily my family (including my 3 week old!), my workmates and I are all
safe, many many others are not.  My home is in a "green" zone meaning we
have 2 out of 3 essentials, (we have water and power but no sewage),
while over 80 percent of the city is without water.

 

I have some nice security cam footage, which should be hitting youtube
soon, of what the workshop at work went through... link shortly.

 

When the quake struck I was is a 70 year old concrete storage building
having a look at a sim we just bought, but managed to run out the small
access door quicker than my 26 year old workmate... still some speed in
these 40 year old bones yet!

 

Oh, and the Skyhawk came through it fine... might go flying during the
aftershocks and take advantage of the free-full-motion effect ;-)

 

Sean

x2... Wife just told me about the quake, hope you're all ok.

We've been getting a bunch of little ones lately. Not sure what's going
on.
