Man, those few seconds must feel like a lifetime when you’re in the middle of it. Prayers up.

2 million displaced, according to this report...

I wonder if the families of the dead would think that’s a funny comment.

Speaking as the survivor of a 7.3, I think anyone who went through it would know exactly what I meant.

Yeah. You lived. If I had lost a relative, I wouldn’t be laughing.

Btw, I have a “twisted” sense of humor. But thinking about children that were lost kinda changes things.

I think you read more into my comment than was intended.

Your dematologist called. Your skin thickener is ready for you to pick up. Better buy a double dose, it looks like you need it.

The day I lose empathy for others will be the day I die. Too bad you didn’t bother reading farther as GVnana and I talked and solved it. Agitate much?

One of the comments (on Fox) that I heard a lot yesterday was, “The worst earthquake in a century...”

They need to do their homework. The 1964 Good Friday quake in Alaska was 9.2. I believe that is within a century.

At least this report said, “ONE of the worst earthquakes...”
