I watched live feed from Christchurch the night it happened and it was just awful. At that time they had just confirmed 65 deaths. It’s since gotten higher...God be with those people as they struggle to dig through the rubble for more....hope there are survivors, too.

Yep, here in California we get quakes and fires, but the loss of life in NZ is high, especially for a 6.3 quake.

,,, the September 4 2010 quake was 7,1 but the 6,3 on Tuesday was quite shallow. I can't help thinking the 7,1 loosened up some of those structures.

We've got our first ever national state of emergency over this... it would be good if they declared marshall law - that way looters could be shot.
