In comparison, a 7.0 earthquake killed hundreds of thousands in Haiti.

If that’s not proof that culture makes a difference, I’m not sure what is. . .

My neighbor spend a lot of time down there on business. He’s there now. Hope all is well with him.

Fox TV doesn’t seem to be covering it. CNN is, but if you want to see what’s happening in Chile right now, especially the damage, check out Univision. It’s in Spanish, but the pictures aren’t. Univision is 402 on DirecTV.
