    I just have been reading some of the accounts on some of the on-line news sources and this one is not good. It kind of hits home when some of your friends, even tho never we've met in person, are involved in a natural disaster. My best wishes and even a prayer go out to you.

    Whip,
    My and my wife's prayers go out to you and your family and that your X will be found alive and well. Same goes to all the rest of you Kiwis, hope all Persons and Rods are well. Keep us posted.
    Having been born and raised in Ca., Eureka and the Bay Area, I am no stranger to quakes and experienced moderate one here in the Puget Sound some years ago. You never get used to them.

    Keep safe,

    Jack.

    Thanks,everyone,,even though we are in the North Island,,I had a restless night last night,,its a major disaster down there.Its just so unbelievable,that some are dead,and some,just a few metres away survive..Rescuers are checking the remains of flattened cars,to see if they were occupied at the time,and I just heard a story,where a woman walked out of one building to have a cigarette,and the quake hit,and the building collapsed behind her..
    We have some good friends down there,and so far they all appear to be ok..Our prayers go out to all those down there,and we hope there is not too much loss of life,although the 32 confirmed is too much..

    If we aren't supposed to have midnight snacks,,,WHY is there a light in the refrigerator???

    I've got a brother and several friends in the area.
    So far I've heard nothing, but I'm hoping that that's good news.
    To Todd and Whiplash, I hope it turns out all good for you and your loved ones.
    I heard that Tombstone (Terry) is safe, although his house is demolished and his kids are very traumatised by the experience.
    He was doing some art-work for Noddy for the Beach Hop, and also for Cal for the Hot Rod Revue.
    Both of them have told him to forget about it...suddenly; deadlines don't matter any more...what seemed important yesterday is suddenly totally irrelevant.
    It's humbling too, to hear the outpourings of prayers and kind wishes from our overseas friends in New Zealand's hour of tragedy...thank-you one and all.

    Just heard that friends of ours, Gerard and Annmarie McCloy, (Ahotrod and lo29A on NZHRM site,) are safe.
    All good.

    Have yet to hear about my brother.

    It almost takes anything you can say away.

    God speed to all involved.
    Good Bye
