Quote:
TOKYO - A powerful, deadly earthquake struck Japan early Sunday, killing at least one person and injuring 150 others as it violently shook buildings and triggered a small tsunami that hit the coast, officials and media reports said.

The magnitude-6.9 quake struck at 9:42 a.m. local time off the north coast of Ishikawa prefecture (state), Japan�s Meteorological Agency said, about 225 miles northwest of Tokyo. The agency issued a tsunami warning urging people near the sea to move to higher land.



Here's hoping all Dave's posters resident in Japan are safe and sound.

IN THE HOUSE!!! w00t w00t

I lived through this earthquake. (Honest ....check my post on the "Osaka visa run" sticky.)

I was lying in bed. I thought I had accidentally turned on the bed's massage function. I actually tried to wiggle a bit to get more reaction out. It lasted about 10 seconds. About 20 minutes later, I turned on the TV and found that there had been an earthquake. (Osaka is on the other side on Japan).
